FreeRADIUS / Cloud AAA

Managed FreeRADIUS for ISPs — without the sysadmin tax

BillFi runs a hardened, multi-tenant FreeRADIUS cluster under the hood. You get every attribute, every EAP method and every accounting hook — with an admin UI, mobile-money billing and 24/7 uptime you don't have to maintain.

Why operators pick BillFi

Battle-tested FreeRADIUS core with a modern CRM on top.

Common headaches

What you're probably fighting today

Problem
Self-hosting is a full-time job

SQL schema, radiusd.conf, dictionary updates, TLS certs, backups. BillFi runs it as a service — you consume it like a REST API.

Problem
Attribute editing without safety

One wrong Framed-IP-Address broke your whole tower last time. BillFi validates every reply attribute before it hits the wire.

Problem
No billing on top

FreeRADIUS ships auth; not invoices, not mobile money, not a portal. BillFi glues AAA to the CRM you actually need.

What's inside

Everything a FreeRADIUS / Cloud AAA operator needs

Hardened FreeRADIUS 3.2 core

Multi-region cluster, encrypted secrets, isolated tenants — the same FreeRADIUS you know, without the ops burden.

Custom reply attributes

Any RADIUS dictionary attribute — MikroTik, Cisco, Huawei, Chillispot, WISPr — editable per plan, validated per NAS.

Real accounting

Interim-Update every 5 min, Start/Stop hooks, session correlation across NAS restarts, deduplication on retries.

EAP-TLS / PEAP / TTLS

Certificate-based enterprise auth for staff Wi-Fi alongside PPPoE for subscribers — one AAA plane.

Attribute inspector

Live-tail Access-Request / Accept / Reject with full attribute dumps — better than tcpdump, no shell required.

IPv4 & IPv6 pool management

Framed-IP, Framed-IPv6-Prefix, Delegated-IPv6-Prefix — pool assignment, reservations and lease audit built in.

How it works

Live in a weekend, not a quarter

01
Add your NAS

IP, shared secret, vendor. BillFi validates the shared secret with a live Access-Request round-trip.

02
Define reply attributes

Per-plan attribute sets with per-NAS overrides. Preview the exact packet before you save.

03
Point RADIUS at us

Change your NAS's RADIUS server to our anycast endpoint. TLS-wrapped RadSec optional.

04
Watch, bill, iterate

Live attribute inspector, session history and accounting-driven invoicing — all in one CRM.

FAQ

Answers, before you ask

Is this real FreeRADIUS or a rewrite?

Real FreeRADIUS 3.2, patched and hardened. You can request an rlm_perl or unlang policy and we'll load it into your tenant.

Can I bring my own dictionary?

Yes. Upload a vendor dictionary and it's available in the attribute editor within minutes.

What about RadSec / TLS?

RadSec is available on request for tenants that need encrypted RADIUS over the public internet — no more UDP shared secrets in transit.

Do you support EAP for enterprise Wi-Fi?

Yes: EAP-TLS with your CA, PEAP-MSCHAPv2 and EAP-TTLS. Great for staff SSIDs alongside subscriber PPPoE on the same tenant.
