rlm_detail(5)                                 FreeRADIUS Module                                rlm_detail(5)



NAME
       rlm_detail - FreeRADIUS Module

DESCRIPTION
       The  rlm_detail  module  writes  radius  packets to 'detail' files.  It is primarily used for storing
       accounting information, but can be used in other sections to write packet details as well.

       The file format is similar to that of the old Livingston servers,  and  many  'detail'  file  parsers
       should work with FreeRADIUS.

       The main configuration items to be aware of are:

       detailfile
              The file name in which to store the radius packet records.  NOTE: this variable is run through
              dynamic string expansion, and can include FreeRADIUS variables to create a dynamic filename.

            %{radacctdir}/%{Client-IP-Address}/detail-%Y%m

            This will create one file per month, for each client.
            This accomplishes 'file rotation' automatically from
            within the server.


       detailperm
              The file permissions of the detailfile.  If omitted, the default is 0600.

       dirperm
              The directory permissions of the directory where the detail files are created.  The default is
              0755.

       locking
              This  option  is set to 'yes' or 'no'.  By default it is 'no'.  Set this to yes to enable file
              locking, which is used with the 'radrelay' program.

CONFIGURATION
       modules {
         ...
         detail {
           detailfile = %A/%{Client-IP-Address}/detail-%Y%m
           detailperm = 0600
           dirperm = 0755
           locking = no
         }
         ...
       }
