Description 

Author

This class can be used to authenticate users with a RADIUS network access server according to RFC 2865.

It connects to a Radius server given its IP address and requests access on behalf of an user given his password.

Once authenticated the class may return the attributes of the authorized user.

This class works with at least the following RADIUS servers:

- Authenex Strong Authentication System (ASAS) with two-factor authentication
- FreeRADIUS, a free Radius server implementation for Linux and Unix environments
- Microsoft Radius server IAS
- Radl, a free Radius server for Windows
- RSA SecurID (challenge/response support for the New-PIN mode)
- WinRadius, Windows Radius server (free for 5 users)
- ZyXEL ZyWALL OTP (One-Time Password for Two-Factor Authentication, Authenex ASAS branded by ZyXEL)

Radius is a protocol often used for enabling network access to ISP clients upon authentication.

This class is a pure PHP implementation of Radius protocol client.

It can be used to authenticate and grant users the access to Web resources served by PHP using the same user names and passwords that ISP clients use to have network access.

Pure PHP radius class

This current build (1.2.4) is obsolete. Take a look at the project https://github.com/dapphp/radius, which is based on this work and has been greatly enhanced by Drew Phillips (still maintained).

This Radius class is a radius client implementation in pure PHP following the RFC 2865 rules (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2865.txt)

(c) 2008-2009 SysCo systemes de communication sa http://developer.sysco.ch/php/

Current build: 1.2.4 (2018-11-03)

This class works with at least the following RADIUS servers: - Authenex Strong Authentication System (ASAS) with two-factor authentication - FreeRADIUS, a free Radius server implementation for Linux and *nix environments - Microsoft Radius server IAS - Mideye RADIUS server (http://www.mideye.com) - Radl, a free Radius server for Windows - RSA SecurID - VASCO Middleware 3.0 server - WinRadius, Windows Radius server (free for 5 users) - ZyXEL ZyWALL OTP (Authenex ASAS branded by ZyXEL, cheaper)

USAGE

require_once('radius.class.php');
$radius = new Radius($ip_radius_server = 'radius_server_ip_address', $shared_secret = 'radius_shared_secret'[, $radius_suffix = 'optional_radius_suffix'[, $udp_timeout = udp_timeout_in_seconds[, $authentication_port = 1812]]]);
$result = $radius->Access_Request($username = 'username', $password = 'password'[, $udp_timeout = udp_timeout_in_seconds]);

EXAMPLES

Example 1

    require_once('radius.class.php');
    $radius = new Radius('127.0.0.1', 'secret');
    $radius->SetNasIpAddress('1.2.3.4'); // Needed for some devices (not always auto-detected)
    if ($radius->AccessRequest('user', 'pass')) {
        echo "Authentication accepted.";
    } else {
        echo "Authentication rejected.";
    }

Example 2

    require_once('radius.class.php');
    $radius = new Radius('127.0.0.1', 'secret');
    $radius->SetNasPort(0);
    $radius->SetNasIpAddress('1.2.3.4'); // Needed for some devices (not always auto-detected)
    if ($radius->AccessRequest('user', 'pass')) {
        echo "Authentication accepted.";
        echo "<br />";
    } else {
        echo "Authentication rejected.";
        echo "<br />";
    }
    echo $radius->GetReadableReceivedAttributes();
