The misc_radius module implements various RADIUS related functions. Functions exist for loading caller's or callee's attributes into AVPs, checking if user belongs to a group, and checking if a specific URI belongs to a user. It thus replaces old avp_radius, group_radius, and uri_radius modules.

All functions of this module load AVPs from SIP-AVP reply items received from RADIUS upon a successful request. Value of the SIP-AVP reply item must be a string of form:

value = SIP_AVP_NAME SIP_AVP_VALUE
SIP_AVP_NAME = STRING_NAME | '#'ID_NUMBER
SIP_AVP_VALUE = ':'STRING_VALUE | '#'NUMBER_VALUE

Example 1.1. “SIP-AVP” RADIUS AVP exmaples

....
"email:joe@yahoo.com"
    -> STRING NAME AVP (email) with STRING VALUE (joe@yahoo.com)
"#14:joe@yahoo.com"
    -> ID AVP (14) with STRING VALUE (joe@yahoo.com)
"age#28"
    -> STRING NAME AVP (age) with INTEGER VALUE (28)
"#14#28"
    -> ID AVP (14) with INTEGER VALUE (28)
....

Unlike in old avp_radius module, functions radius_load_calle[re]_avps() do not prefix string names of AVPs by string “caller_” or “callee_” depending if caller's or callee's attributes were loaded. If you need these prefixes, make your RADIUS server to prepend them into attribute names when it constructs reply items.

A new feature of misc_radius module is that it is now possible to include user defined extra RADIUS attributes in all requests send by functions of this module.

4. Functions

4.1. `radius_load_caller_avps(caller)`

The functions loads caller's attributes from radius and stores them into AVPs. Parameter “caller” is a string that may contain pseudo variables. It indicates the user, whose attributes are loaded.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE.

Example 1.14. radius_load_caller_avps() usage

...
radius_load_caller_avps("$fU@$fd");	# take caller from From URI
...
radius_load_caller_avps("$au@$ar");	# take caller from Authorization
...					# or Proxy-Authorization header

4.2. `radius_load_callee_avps(callee)`

The functions loads callee's attributes from radius and stores them into AVPs. Parameter “callee” is a string that may contain pseudo variables. It indicates the user, whose attributes are loaded.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE.

Example 1.15. radius_load_callee_avps() usage

...
radius_load_callee_avps("$rU@$rd");	# take callee from Request-URI
...

4.3. `radius_is_user_in(user, group)`

The functions checks from RADIUS, if user given in first argument belongs to group given in second argument. Both arguments are strings, but user string may also contain pseudo variables. In case of positive result, loads AVPs from SIP-AVP reply items, if any.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE, FAILURE_ROUTE, BRANCH_ROUTE, and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.16. radius_is_user_in() usage

...
radius_is_user_in("$rU@$rd", "1");	# take user from Request-URI
...
radius_is_user_in("$au@$ar", "group_x");# take user from credentials
...

4.4. `radius_does_uri_exist([uri])`

Checks from RADIUS if userpart@hostpart of Request-URI or of an URI stored in optional pseudo variable argument belongs to a local user. In case of positive result, loads AVPs from SIP-AVP reply items, if any.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.17. radius_does_uri_exist() usage

...
if (radius_does_uri_exist()) ...	# check Request-URI
...
if (radius_does_uri_exist("$avp(i:99)")) ...	# check URI in $avp(i:99)
...

4.5. `radius_does_uri_user_exist([user])`

Similar to radius_does_uri_exist, but check is done based only on Request-URI userpart or userpart stored in optional pseudo variable argument. Userpart should thus be unique among all user URIs, such as an E.164 number. In case of positive result, loads AVPs from SIP-AVP reply items, if any.

This function can be used from REQUEST_ROUTE and LOCAL_ROUTE.

Example 1.18. radius_does_uri_user_exist() usage

...
if (radius_does_uri_user_exist()) ...	# check Request-URI userpart
...
if (radius_does_uri_exist("$fU")) ...	# check From URI userpart
...
