To configure your **FreeRADIUS server** for **LDAP authentication** (via LDAPS) in your home lab, follow these steps. The configuration will ensure the Unifi Access Point (AP) can authenticate users against your LDAP server (AD) via the FreeRADIUS server.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **1. Install Required Packages**
|
||||
Install **FreeRADIUS** and the necessary modules. Since you're using **FreeRADIUS 3.2.1**, ensure you install the correct version. On **Proxmox**, you can use `apt` or install via Docker.
|
||||
|
||||
#### **For Ubuntu/Debian (if using a VM or bare metal):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo apt update
|
||||
sudo apt install freeradius freeradius-ldap freeradius-mysql
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### **If using Docker (optional):**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker run -d \
|
||||
--name freeradius \
|
||||
--network host \
|
||||
--restart unless-stopped \
|
||||
--volume /path/to/config:/etc/freeradius \
|
||||
--volume /path/to/ldap-cert:/etc/ssl/certs \
|
||||
--volume /path/to/mariadb:/var/lib/mysql \
|
||||
freeradius/freeradius:3.2.1
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **2. Configure FreeRADIUS to Use LDAP (LDAPS)**
|
||||
|
||||
#### **2.1. Edit `radiusd.conf`**
|
||||
Set the listening address to **IPv4 and IPv6**:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo nano /etc/freeradius/radiusd.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
Update the following lines:
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
listen {
|
||||
ipaddr = 0.0.0.0
|
||||
port = 1812
|
||||
instance = main
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
listen {
|
||||
ipaddr = ::
|
||||
port = 1812
|
||||
instance = main
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### **2.2. Configure LDAP Backend in `ldap` Module**
|
||||
Create or edit the LDAP configuration file:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo nano /etc/freeradius/ldap
|
||||
```
|
||||
Add the following (replace placeholders with your actual values):
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
ldap {
|
||||
server = ad.reliyya.xyz
|
||||
port = 6360
|
||||
timeout = 5
|
||||
bind = yes
|
||||
base_dn = DC=reliyya,DC=xyz
|
||||
filter = (objectClass=person)
|
||||
start_tls = yes
|
||||
ldap_tls_cafile = /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
|
||||
ldap_tls_cacertdir = /etc/ssl/certs
|
||||
ldap_tls_certfile = /etc/ssl/certs/client-cert.pem
|
||||
ldap_tls_keyfile = /etc/ssl/certs/client-key.pem
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Notes:**
|
||||
- `server` = DNS entry for your LDAP server (`ad.reliyya.xyz`).
|
||||
- `port` = LDAPS port (`6360`).
|
||||
- `start_tls = yes` enables TLS (if your LDAP server uses LDAPS).
|
||||
- If your LDAP server requires a certificate, specify `ldap_tls_cafile` or `ldap_tls_cacertdir`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### **2.3. Configure `ldap` Module in `radiusd.conf`**
|
||||
Enable the LDAP module:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo nano /etc/freeradius/radiusd.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
Add this line under `[modules]`:
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
ldap
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### **2.4. Configure `users` File (Optional)**
|
||||
If you want to test without LDAP, you can use a static user:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo nano /etc/freeradius/users
|
||||
```
|
||||
Add:
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
testuser Cleartext-Password := "password"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **3. Configure Clients in `clients.conf`**
|
||||
Set up the Unifi controller as a client:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo nano /etc/freeradius/clients.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
Add:
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
client unifi-controller {
|
||||
ipaddr = 10.56.0.0/24
|
||||
secret = your_shared_secret
|
||||
require_client_certificate = no
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
Replace `your_shared_secret` with a secure password (same on Unifi controller).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **4. Test LDAP Connectivity**
|
||||
Verify the LDAP server is reachable:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
ldapsearch -x -H ldaps://ad.reliyya.xyz:6360 -b "DC=reliyya,DC=xyz" -D "CN=testuser,DC=reliyya,DC=xyz" -w password
|
||||
```
|
||||
Replace `testuser` and `password` with a valid LDAP user.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **5. Test FreeRADIUS Authentication**
|
||||
Use `radtest` to test authentication:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
radtest testuser password 10.56.1.251 0 testing123
|
||||
```
|
||||
If successful, you'll see:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Sending Access-Request of type Auth-Request
|
||||
...
|
||||
Access-Accept
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **6. Configure Unifi Controller to Use FreeRADIUS**
|
||||
1. Log in to the Unifi controller web UI.
|
||||
2. Navigate to **Network > Radius**.
|
||||
3. Add a new RADIUS server:
|
||||
- **Name**: `radius.reliyya.xyz`
|
||||
- **IP Address**: `radius.reliyya.xyz` (DNS entry)
|
||||
- **Port**: `1812` (Authentication), `1813` (Accounting)
|
||||
- **Shared Secret**: `your_shared_secret`
|
||||
- **NAS ID**: `unifi-controller`
|
||||
4. Save and test the connection.
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
### **7. Optional: Set Up MariaDB for Session Tracking**
|
||||
If you want to store session data:
|
||||
1. Install MariaDB:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo apt install mariadb-server
|
||||
```
|
||||
2. Configure `radiusd.conf` to use MySQL:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo nano /etc/freeradius/radiusd.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
Add:
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
mysql
|
||||
```
|
||||
3. Configure `sql` module in `radiusd.conf`:
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
sudo nano /etc/freeradius/sql.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
Set the database connection details and table schema.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **8. Security Considerations**
|
||||
- Ensure **TLS is enforced** for LDAPS.
|
||||
- Use **strong secrets** for RADIUS and LDAP.
|
||||
- Restrict access to the FreeRADIUS server via OPNsense firewall.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
### **Summary**
|
||||
- **Packages**: `freeradius`, `freeradius-ldap`, `freeradius-mysql`
|
||||
- **Key Config Files**: `radiusd.conf`, `ldap`, `clients.conf`, `users`
|
||||
- **LDAP Server**: Use `ad.reliyya.xyz:6360` with TLS
|
||||
- **Unifi Controller**: Point to `radius.reliyya.xyz` with shared secret
