Re: eth. protocol 8864 (pppoe) hitting physical interface

I should have reported what we found.

It was a rogue router on the network generating that traffic.
When we disconnected it, the traffic disappeared.
From memory it was a D-link, apparently a firmware upgrade fixed the issue.

calculating daily and monthly totals (SQL)

Hi all, We have a few MT's in the field that use Radius (freeradius 1.04 and mysql) for accounting and PPPOE. We set speeds, usernames and passwords in radcheck and radreply, all usage is also logged in the radacct table. I'm trying to work out how the best way to retrieve daily totals is. I read th...

ok got it.

It's the Interim command in AAA that you need to set to get periodic accounting.

Thanks.

Using a sniffer I did not see any packets coming from the MT to Radius, only on connection and disconnection.

What I need is the accounting information which is in the radacct table in SQL. I need that to be sent periodically, not on disconnect only.

Does anyone know how to do this ?

PPPOE > Radius > SQL Accounting Issue

Hi all, I'm sure this has been discussed before but I can't seem to find the thread. We have a simple setup here, we use an MT to terminate PPPOE and the MT talks to Radius. When the client disconnects, we also get the Accounting data. My question is: Is there anyway to get accounting data from the ...

sorry let me re-phrase that, not secure as in https. I mean secure as in secured by windows authentication over regular HTTP.

web proxy and password protected websites

Ever since we started using our web-proxy (running in transparent mode as a bridge), all our secure websites that require you to enter a user/pass are not working. It's almost like you don't even get the password pop up box anymore. It just basically gives you a "You are not authorised", a...

Simple Transparent Web Proxy

Hi all, I can't seem to get the transparent proxy feature working on our MT. I've followed the documentation with no luck. Basically we have a box with 2 nics. Works perfectly as a gateway, internal address range gets nat'd out the external interface. No special rules atm. I've setup the web proxy, ...

actually I might try getting 1 thing at a time working.

I'm really mostly interested on how to run RIPv2 with the PPPOE server, seeing as it's recommended that the interface of the pppoe server does not have an IP address.

PPPOE / RIPv2 / Security

Hi all, We have a few MT Routerboards deployed around the network running Ripv2 which I then redistribute into our Cisco EIGRP network. Works well. We are basically a simple Ethernet network, with a lot of transparent Wireless points that our clients use to connect to us. I'm looking at introducing ...

Just reading thru that documentation, it looks like exactly what we need.
WIll it be made available so we can host it sometime soon ?

In the documentation it doesn't say anything about automating it though.

but wait - if you added the user with winbox, right?, then this has nothing to do with radius ... the user is in the router's local database. local database and radius database are two different things, they are not being syncronised. this is what I see now yes, but when adding a user by winbox it ...

Winbox adding users locally instead of into radius ?

Hello, I noticed that in Winbox you can set an uptime limit in hotspot so the user is disconnected after a period of time. The issue is that it doesn't seem to be writing them to Radius. It keeps them locally. I do know that Radius is working becuase when I add a user using Radius Manager (3rd party...
