Privacyidea with a public IP

Hi guys

We have set up PrivacyIDEA in the cloud to serve all our sites. I need deferent devices in each site (firewall, VPN, switches) to authenticate over the internet. All the sites are behind NAT. for example

Site A with the public IP 161.134.2.54

  • Firewall/VPN 192.168.55.1
  • Switch.1 192.168.55.2
  • Switch.2 192.168.55.3

My PrivacyIDEA with radius public IP is 44.126.76.231

How do I configure PrivacyIDEA with “Override Authorization Client” to be able to see the equipment private IP and not 127.0.0.1? I’ve tried just the site public IP 161.134.2.54 and 192.168.55.2>161.134.2.54. But nothing is working. I’m assuming my formatting of “Override Authorization Client” is incorrect or do I need to tick a box somewhere else as well?

This is so I can create one policy for the switches and one for the VPN.

Thanks

Please read this again:

https://privacyidea.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration/system_config.html#override-authorization-client

It should be obvious, which IP address you need to enter there.
There are even examples.

Thanks a lot.

Thanks, but I have already. Obviously I’m doing something wrong. My radius client is behind a firewall/NAT and I’m not sure if “Override Authorization Client” needs to have the public IP or the private IP of the radius client.

Is it not clear, that it is the IP address seen by the privacyIDEA server?

I thought you could pass through the private IP of the radius client. In my situation, I’ll have several radius clients behind one public IP. I was hopping I can create deferent sets of policies based on private IPs.
