# Auth_radius Module

## Overview

This module contains functions that are used to perform authentication using a Radius server. Basically the proxy will pass along the credentials to the radius server which will in turn send a reply containing result of the authentication. So basically the whole authentication is done in the Radius server. Before sending the request to the radius server we perform some sanity checks over the credentials to make sure that only well formed credentials will get to the server. We have implemented radius authentication according to draft-sterman-aaa-sip-00. This module requires radiusclient library version 0.5.0 or higher which is available from http://developer.berlios.de/projects/radiusclient-ng/.

## Dependencies

The module depends on the following modules (in the other words the listed modules must be loaded before this module):

- ### auth

  Generic authentication functions.
