Package org.tinyradius.client

Class RadiusClient

java.lang.Object

org.tinyradius.server.AbstractListener

org.tinyradius.client.RadiusClient

public class RadiusClient
extends AbstractListener

This object represents a simple Radius client which communicates with a specified Radius server. You can use a single instance of this object to authenticate or account different users with the same Radius server as long as you authenticate/account one user after the other.

This object is thread safe, but requires a packet manager to avoid confusion with the mapping of request and result packets.

Constructor Detail

RadiusClient

public RadiusClient(io.netty.channel.EventLoopGroup eventLoopGroup,
                    io.netty.channel.ChannelFactory<? extends io.netty.channel.socket.DatagramChannel> factory,
                    ClientHandler clientHandler,
                    RetryStrategy retryStrategy,
                    java.net.InetSocketAddress listenAddress)

Parameters:

eventLoopGroup - for both channel IO and processing

factory - to create new Channel

clientHandler - to log outgoing packets and handle incoming packets/responses

retryStrategy - retry strategy for scheduling retries and timeouts

listenAddress - local address to bind to

Method Detail

start

public io.netty.util.concurrent.Future<java.lang.Void> start()

Registers the channel and binds to address.

Also run implicitly if communicate(RadiusPacket, RadiusEndpoint) is called.

Specified by:

start in class AbstractListener

Returns:

channelFuture of started channel socket

stop

public io.netty.util.concurrent.Future<java.lang.Void> stop()

Description copied from class: AbstractListener

Shutdown and close resources.

Specified by:

stop in class AbstractListener

Returns:

future completes when resources shutdown

communicate

public io.netty.util.concurrent.Future<RadiusPacket> communicate(RadiusPacket originalPacket,
                                                                 RadiusEndpoint endpoint)
