UPDATE:

I tryed with the expr plugin to sanitize and mangle the User-Name sent from StrongSwan plugin eap-radius with EAP-TLS.

eg
        ...
        update request {
                &Tmp-String-8 := "%{escape:%{&User-Name}}"
                &User-Name := &Tmp-String-8


but this leads to an senseful eap error in freeradius:
        (1) eap: Identity does not match User-Name, setting from EAP Identity
        1) eap: Failed in handler
        (1)     [eap] = invalid


Therefore if you will handle this raw parsed ASN.1-username from strongswan-plugin eap-radius you need far more effort.

Because of time constrainst I will run with the hack disabling the
whitespace and suffix checks.

But I have to replace many cisco ASAs with open source, therefore it would be nice if the strongswan developer can thought about suitable configuration options in eap-radius.conf.

Eg in cisco asa, in the tunnel-group you can select how the username sent to the AAA server is generated from the user certificate,
         username-from-certificate CN|OU|use-entire-name|use-script ..

Hi,

thank you for yout thoughts.

Yes this is a workaround, I created policy.d/strongswan with filter_username_custom in it.

But it would be nice to have a readable and sanitized subject DN as User-Name attribute.

And what about proxying the request to another home-server with ASN.1 raw hex User-Name.

Eventuelly I will test EAP-TLS with cisco IOS or ASA and look how they mangle the username.
