.TH rlm_sql_log 5 "28 May 2005" "" "FreeRADIUS Module"
.SH NAME
rlm_sql_log \- FreeRADIUS Module
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fBrlm_sql_log\fP module appends the SQL queries in a log file
which is read later by the scripts/radsqlrelay Perl program.
.PP
The purpose of this module is to de-couple the storage of long-term
accounting data in SQL from "live" information needed by the RADIUS
server as it's running.  If you are not using SQL for simultaneous
login restrictions (i.e. "sql" is not listed in the "session" section
of "radiusd.conf"), then this module allows you to log SQL queries to
a file, and then process them at your leisure.
.PP
The benefit of this approach is that for a busy server, the overhead
of performing SQL qeuries may be significant.  Also, if the SQL
databases are large (as is typical for ones storing months of data),
the INSERTs and UPDATEs may take a relatively long time.  Rather than
slowing down the RADIUS server by having it interact with a database,
you can just log the queries to a file, and then run those queries on
another machine, or at a time when the RADIUS server is typically
lightly loaded.
.PP
If the "sql" module is listed in the "session" section of
"radiusd.conf", then a similar system can still be used.  In that
case, one database would be used to maintain "live" session
information.  That database would be small, fast, and information
would be deleted from it when a user logs out.  A second database
would store long-term accounting information, as described above.
.SH LIMITATIONS
This module only performs the dynamic expansion of the variables found
in the SQL statements. No operation is executed on the database server.
(this would be done later by an external program) That means the module
is useful only with non-"SELECT" statements.
.SH CONFIGURATION
The main configuration items to be aware of are the path of the log
file and the different SQL queries.
.IP "path"
An entry named "path" sets the full path of the file where the SQL
queries are recorded. (this variable is run through dynamic string
expansion, and can include FreeRADIUS variables to create a dynamic
filename)
.IP "Accounting queries"
When a accounting record is processed, the module searches a config
entry keyed by the Acct-Status-Type attribute present in the
packet. For example, the SQL to be run on an accounting start must be
named "Start" in the configuration for the module. Other usual values
for Acct-Status-Type are "Stop", "Alive", "Accounting-On", etc.  See
the VALUEs for Acct-Status-Type in the dictionary.rfc2866 file.
.IP "Post-Auth query"
An entry named "Post-Auth" sets the query to run during the
post-authentication stage.  This query is mainly used to log sessions
where there may not be a later accounting packet.
