FreeRADIUS 3.0.23
Feature improvements
* Update dictionary.aruba
* Add "set home_server state ... down" in order to mark the
home server as administratively down. Use "alive" to bring
it back to life.
* Add Post-Auth-Type "Client-Lost" which should make it easier
to log when clients stop responding.
* Add sites-available/totp as an example of how to use TOTP.
* Add %{mschap:Domain-Name}.
* Cache TLS messages in &session-state, for more debugging.
* Notes in eap configuration about TLS 1.0 / TLS 1.1, and setting
cipher_list = "DEFAULT@SECLEVEL=1"
* Added MANY warning messages about using TLS 1.3 with EAP.
In short, don't use it. Microsoft will support it in fall 2021.
Bug fixes
* Fix crash in some cases when home server is down, in debug mode.
* Fix (again) "read clients from SQL" functionality.
* Fix sql_map to return values in more situations.
* Silently ignore LEAP configuration instead of erroring out.
FreeRADIUS 3.0.22
Feature improvements
* Many new "unlang" documentation files. See "make docsite"
and then see build/docsite/freeradius-server/*/index.html
* Limited support for dynamic home servers. See proxy.conf
and doc/configuration/dynamic_home_servers.md
* Add support for prepend operator ^=. See "man unlang" for
for details.
* Added rlm_totp, for use with the Google Authenticator app.
See mods-available/totp.
* The default minimum TLS version is now TLS 1.2, as per RFC 8996.
Older versions can be allowed by setting tls_min_version, and
updating "cipher_list".
* Significantly improve the readability and contents of TLS
debug messages.
* Allow CoA and Disconnect messages over TLS sockets.
* Automatically set fragment size / MTU, so that PEAP/EAP-TLS
works, and no longer requires manual changes to the configuration.
* Allow "configurable_client_cert=yes" for EAP-TLS. This should
only be used for a "walled garden". See mods-available/eap
* Add TLS 1.2 support for EAP-Fast. Patches from Alex Clouter.
* Add ca_path_reload_interval option for tls. See mods-available/eap.
* Abfab-tls updates from Alejandro Perez.
* Add "tls_min_version" to ldap module configuration.
* We now support running policies when receiving a RadSec connection.
See sites-available/default, "New-TLS-Connection".
* Update TLS "ecdh_curve" code to allow for multiple curves.
* Allow delta CRLs.
* add rlm_sql_map, which can handle multiple columns from an SQL
query. See raddb/mods-available/sql_map.
* New xlat for setting status of rlm_always instances and new
resource-check example virtual server for manipulating control flow
in unlang policies based on status of some external resource.
Patches from Terry Burton.
* Update radmin to show more information about the home servers
using "show home_server list all".
* The default configuration now replies with EAP-Key-Name, if it
is available, and was requested.
* Include extensions in generated certificates.
* Ignore user-provided dhparams in FIPS mode.
Patch from Alexander Scheel.
* Remove native support for Cisco LEAP. It is insecure, and
should not be used. Proxying LEAP is still supported.
* Allow use of password preparation methods with rlm_eap_pwd.
Patch from Michael Braun.
* Many, many, improvements for DHCP from Nick Porter and Terry Burton.
* More RFC compliance for various corner cases of DHCP,
* Use DHCP-specific schemas.
* Add stored procedures for DHCP lease allocation
* Add support for DHCP-Decline.
* Added mods-available/dhcp_sql which is a DHCP-specific instance
of the SQL module.
* Treat DHCP Discover and Request differently for lease allocation times.

dictionary.juniper, dictionary.bskyb,
dictionary.alcatel.sr.
* Update default PostgreSQL schema to use "text" instead of
a fixed-size "varchar".
* Add radmin command "show client list verbose", which gives a lot
more information about each client.
* Add support for EAPS-AKA authentication to rlm_wimax.
* Add rlm_rest support for HTTP/2.
* Add REST-HTTP-Status-Code attribute holding HTTP status code.
* Add option to set http_negotiation in rlm_rest.
* Encode / decode NAS-Filter-Rule according to RFC 4849.
Inside of FreeRADIUS, each NAS-Filter-Rule just looks like
a string. But "on the wire", it follows RFC 4849.
See src/tests/unit/rfc4849.txt
* Allow attributes using old names in configuration files, SQL,
or modules to match attributes in the packet which use
new names.
* Allow querying IPv6 stats via FreeRADIUS-Stats-Client-IPv6-Address
and FreeRADIUS-Stats-Server-IPv6-Address
* Add warnings if there is no "real" User-Name to identify users.
* Add sample configuration to update Stripped-User-Name and/or
Class for user sessions. See sites-available/default
* Add configuration to suppress printing values for User-Name, etc.
See radiusd.conf, "suppress_secrets"
* Support dictionary.telrad, which is also in WiMAX format.
* PEAP 'proxy_tunneled_request_as_eap' is now configurable
at runtime with Proxy-Tunneled-Request-As-EAP.
* Debug output now lists client/server proposed TLS ciphers.
* Add support for TLS1.3, patches from Alexander Clouter
Bug fixes
* Fix long-term double free due to PCRE calling our "free"
function twice.
* Respect the "log_reject" configuration item in more places.
This lowers the number of "Login incorrect"
messages when "log_reject = no".
* Fix rpmbuild for Centos > 6. Patch from Matthew Newton.
* Run Post-Proxy-Type Fail... when all home servers are down.
* Note that rlm_replicate can only use UDP, and not TCP or TLS.
* DHCP pool lookup is now keyed by Client Identifier (Option 61) when
supplied by client, otherwise the hardware address is used. Compliant
with RFC 2132. This change will not affect existing systems on upgrade,
but new installations will use the new behavior.
Patch from Terry Burton.
* Fix minor spelling mistakes in man pages. Patch from
Alexander Scheel.
* Don't print invalid tags in rlm_cache, among other places.
* Do home_server failover immediately when an initial TCP / Radsec
connection fails.
* Port EAP-PWD constant time fixes from "master" branch. The issue
was verified by Mohamed Sabt, and a patch supplied by
Daniel De Almeida Braga.
* Clear error on SQLITE_BUSY to prevent memory leak in corner cases.
Patch from Nick Porter.
* Properly add SQL clients to virtual servers.
* Update documentation for cert generation. Patch from Alexander Scheel.
* Use better API when decoding DHCP packets, to avoid unnecessary work.
This improves performance noticeably.
* Parse locale-dependent dates.
* Strip out "-frecord-gcc-switches" from rlm_python3 configure build.
* Fix radiusd.conf ENV LD_PRELOAD function.
* Update the "sql" module so that it uses fewer handles for group selection,
which means that it is less likely to complain that the
connection pool is exhausted.
* Update the "sql" module to return "ok" when no rows have been updated
for accounting on/off.
* Make the "date" module handle UTC more consistently.
* Check for, and complain about, inconsistent use of tls_min_version
versus disable_tlsv1
* Fix "read client from SQL" code so that it properly ties clients
to a virtual server. Also document the behavior.
* Update / correct data types in dictionary.wimax
* Fix edge case in rlm_rest post decoder which could lead to the value of
a post attribute being lost in the case where the output buffer was completely
full after writing an attribute value, and more attributes needed to be encoded.
Reported by Adrian Smith.
* Fix leak with unknown attributes in detail reader.
* Fix parenting issues in rlm_yubikey.
* Update Mongo examples to be correct.
Notices
* CentOS 6, Debian 8 (Jessie) and Ubuntu 14 (Trusty) are EOL and no
longer supported. Docker files have been removed.

Based on a PR from @coyhile
(https://github.com/joyent/pkgsrc/issues/18). Splits modules with
external dependencies into separate packages.
The 1.1.x branch was EOL'd in 2008. No upgrade guide from 1.1.x to 3.0.x
seem to exist.
Summary of improvements in 3.x:
- Moved configuration entries in radiusd.conf to make more sense.
- Added the "integer64" and "ipv4prefix" data types.
- Added RADIUS over TLS (i.e. RadSec). See raddb/sites-available/tls.
- Updated internal API to support new attributes and formats.
- Added code to send SNMP Traps. See raddb/trigger.conf.
- Added preliminary support for Apple's Grand Central Dispatch.
- Added provisions for raddb/dictionary.local, for local changes See
raddb/dictionary for more details.
- Added packet/s tracking. See max_pps in the "listen" section.
- The %{} expansions and "unlang" conditions are now parsed at server
start. Descriptive errors are produced for syntax and format errors.
- Casting is now supported for "unlang" comparisons. See "man unlang"
e.g. <ipaddr>127.0.0.1 == Framed-IP-Address.
- Direct comparison of attribute references is now supported e.g. &Foo
== &Bar. This avoids stringification of the attributes.
- Direct assignment of attributes is now supported e.g. Foo := &Bar. It
also works for "octets" data types.
- Comparisons of IPv4 and IPv6 prefixes are now supported The "<"
operator means "within the prefix" for comparisons.
- New sha1 xlat expansion (thanks to Alan Buxey).
- Colourised log messages when logging to stdout. Look for yellow
warnings and red errors. Doing this will save you a LOT of grief.
- If the PCRE library is available, use it (insted of the POSIX
functions) to process regular expressions (thanks to Phil Mayers).
- -xv now displays all the features the server was built with, and the
versions of the core libraries (libtalloc, libssl).
Summary of improvements in 2.x:
- simple policy language (see "man unlang")
- virtual servers ("raddb/sites-available/README")
- IPv6 support
- better proxy support ("raddb/proxy.conf")
- More EAP types
- Debugging output should be <em>much</em> easier to understand
- VMPS support
- More modules have been moved to "stable" status (python, etc.)
- SQL configuration has been cleaned up (see "raddb/sql/*")
- limited support for HUP. (The configuration for some modules is
re-loaded on HUP. Nothing else is reloaded.)
- check configuration and exit ("radiusd -C")
- Server core is now event based (simpler, more powerful)
