NAME

rc_aaa_ctx - Builds an authentication/accounting request and submits it to a server, optionally returning context.

SYNOPSIS

#include <radcli/>

int rc_aaa_ctx(
    rc_handle        *rh,
    RC_AAA_CTX      **ctx,
    uint32_t          nas_port,
    VALUE_PAIR       *send,
    VALUE_PAIR      **received,
    char             *msg,
    int               add_nas_port,
    rc_standard_codes request_type
);

DESCRIPTION

Selects the server list from configuration (authserver or acctserver depending on request_type and transport), sends the request with automatic retry and server failover, and returns the server's response.

PARAMETERS

rh

a handle to parsed configuration.

ctx

if non-NULL, receives an allocated RC_AAA_CTX on success; the caller must free it with rc_aaa_ctx_free(). Pass NULL if not needed.

nas_port

the physical NAS port number to include (may be zero).

send

VALUE_PAIR list of attributes to send (e.g., PW_USER_NAME).

received

on success, receives the server's reply VALUE_PAIR list; the caller must free it with rc_avpair_free().

msg

if non-NULL, must point to a buffer of PW_MAX_MSG_SIZE bytes; will contain the concatenation of any PW_REPLY_MESSAGE attributes received.

add_nas_port

if non-zero, PW_NAS_PORT is added to the sent pairs.

request_type

one of the standard RADIUS codes (e.g., PW_ACCESS_REQUEST).

RETURN VALUE

OK_RC (0) on success, CHALLENGE_RC (3) on Access-Challenge, REJECT_RC (2) on Access-Reject, or a negative error code on failure.
