privacyIDEA 2.22 allows flexible Authentication at VPNs and Firewalls

With privacyIDEA 2.22 we added the possibility to pass more useful userinformation to a RADIUS client like a VPN. The administrator can add a policy to include the resolver and the realm of a user who authenticated successfully. This response data can then be used in the FreeRADIUS plugin and modified by regular expressions to add any arbitrary RADIUS attribute in the RADIUS response, which then would be sent to the VPN. This additional information can be used by Cisco ASA, Citrix Netscaler or any other enterprise grade VPN to put the user into certain subnets or to assign resource to the user.

In privacyIDEA 2.22 the flexibilty of using arbitrary user attributes in the RADIUS protocol was heavily improved. But there are a lot of other features and enhancements. You can find the complete article at privacyidea.org.
