- #
- # Version 2.0 has a useful new feature called "templates".
- #
- # Use templates by adding a line in radiusd.conf:
- #
- # $INCLUDE templates.conf
- #
- # The goal of the templates is to have common configuration located
- # in this file, and to list only the *differences* in the individual
- # sections. This feature is most useful for sections like "clients"
- # or "home_servers", where many may be defined, and each one has
- # similar repeated configuration.
- #
- # Something similar to templates can be done by putting common
- # configuration into separate files, and using "$INCLUDE file...",
- # but this is more flexible, and simpler to understand. It's also
- # cheaper for the server, because "$INCLUDE" makes a copy of the
- # configuration for inclusion, and templates are simply referenced.
- #
- # The templates are defined in the "templates" section, so that they
- # do not affect the rest of the server configuration.
- #
- # A section can reference a template by using "$template name"
- #
- templates {
- #
- # The contents of the templates section are other
- # configuration sections that would normally go into
- # the configuration files.
- #
-
- #
- # This is a default template for the "home_server" section.
- # Note that there is no name for the section.
- #
- # Any configuration item that is valid for a "home_server"
- # section is also valid here. When a "home_server" section
- # is defined in proxy.conf, this section is referenced as
- # the template.
- #
- # Configuration items that are explicitly listed in a
- # "home_server" section of proxy.conf are used in
- # preference to the configuration items listed here.
- #
- # However, if a configuration item is NOT listed in a
- # "home_server" section of proxy.conf, then the value here
- # is used.
- #
- # This functionality lets you put common configuration into
- # a template, and to put only the unique configuration
- # items in "proxy.conf". Each section in proxy.conf can
- # then contain a line "$template home_server", which will
- # cause it to reference this template.
- #
- home_server {
- response_window = 20
- zombie_period = 40
- revive_interval = 120
- #
- # Etc.
- }
-
- #
- # You can also have named templates. For example, if you
- # are proxying to 3 different home servers all at the same
- # site, with identical configurations (other than IP
- # addresses), you can use this named template.
- #
-
- # Then, each "home_server" section in "proxy.conf" would
- # only list the IP address of that home server, and a
- # line saying
- #
- # $template example_com
- #
- # That would tell FreeRADIUS to look in the section below
- # for the rest of the configuration items.
- #
- # For various reasons, you shouldn't have a "." in the template
- # name. Doing so means that the server will be unable to find
- # the template.
- #
- example_com {
- type = auth
- port = 1812
- secret = testing123
- response_window = 20
- #
- # Etc...
- }
-
- #
- # You can have templates for other sections, too, but they
- # seem to be most useful for home_servers.
- #
- # For now, you can use templates only for sections in
- # radiusd.conf, not sub-sections. So you still have to use
- # the "$INCLUDE file.." method for things like defining
- # multiple "sql" modules, each with similar configuration.
