Auth Proxy for RADIUS

The RADIUS server is a command-line executable that enables communication between Active Directory (AD) or LDAP users onboarded in 1Kosmos and a RADIUS client.

---

Overview

Authentication requests received from the RADIUS client are validated through 1Kosmos using the configured authentication methods.

Supported Version: goauthproxy 1.00.07

---

Configuring Community for Radius Servers

The RADIUS server must be configured with a shared secret (community) that matches the configuration on the RADIUS client.

This shared secret is used to establish trust between the RADIUS client and the Auth Proxy.

---

Command Line Arguments

The RADIUS server is executed using the following command:

goauthproxy radius

RADIUS Server Setup and Configuration

Starting the Radius Server Service

Run the following command to start the RADIUS server:

goauthproxy radius

---

Stopping the Radius Server Service

The RADIUS server runs as a foreground process. It can be stopped using:

If running in terminal:

Ctrl + C

If running in background:

Linux / macOS:

ps -ef | grep goauthproxykill -9 <PID>

Windows:

tasklist | findstr goauthproxytaskkill /PID <PID> /F

---

RADIUS Server Configuration Parameters

RADIUS server configuration is managed through the AdminX control plane. Parameters such as authentication behavior, user mapping, and integration settings are defined during Auth Proxy configuration.

---

Configuring the Radius Secret

A shared secret must be configured on both:

• RADIUS client

• Auth Proxy

The values must match exactly for successful authentication.

---

Managing Logs and PID Directories

• The Auth Proxy generates logs during RADIUS server execution

• The running process is associated with a Process ID (PID)

These logs can be used for monitoring and troubleshooting authentication flows.

Use system process commands to identify the PID and manage the running service.
