The module Statement

Syntax

module

The module statement is a reference to the named module. Common module names include pap, chap, files, eap, and sql. The modules subsection of radiusd.conf contains all of the valid modules.

When processing reaches a named module, the pre-compiled module is called. The module may succeed or fail and will return a status code to the unlang interpreter detailing success or failure.

Example

chap
sql

Module Return Codes

When a module is called, it returns one of the following codes to the interpreter; the meaning of each code is detailed to the right of the source, below:

Table 1. Module Return Codes
Name	Meaning
reject	the module rejected the request
fail	the module failed
ok	the module succeeded
handled	the module has handled the request itself
invalid	the configuration was invalid
userlock	the user was locked out
notfound	information was not found
noop	the module did nothing
updated	the module updated the request

These return codes can be used in a subsequent conditional expression (see the processing section for a more detailed description), thus allowing policies to perform different actions based on the behaviour of the modules.
