Introduction
pyrad is an implementation of a RADIUS client/server as described in RFC2865. It takes care of all the details like building RADIUS packets, sending them and decoding responses.
Here is an example of doing a authentication request:
from __future__ import print_function
from pyrad.client import Client
from pyrad.dictionary import Dictionary
import pyrad.packet
srv = Client(server="localhost", secret=b"Kah3choteereethiejeimaeziecumi",
dict=Dictionary("dictionary"))
# create request
req = srv.CreateAuthPacket(code=pyrad.packet.AccessRequest,
User_Name="wichert", NAS_Identifier="localhost")
req["User-Password"] = req.PwCrypt("password")
# send request
reply = srv.SendPacket(req)
if reply.code == pyrad.packet.AccessAccept:
print("access accepted")
else:
print("access denied")
print("Attributes returned by server:")
for i in reply.keys():
print("%s: %s" % (i, reply[i]))
Requirements & Installation
pyrad requires Python 2.6 or later, or Python 3.2 or later
Installing is simple; pyrad uses the standard distutils system for installing Python modules:
python setup.py install
