Mac Authentication on Hotspot not working

Fri Nov 18, 2011 12:50 am

I am trying to setup Mac Authentication setup on Hotspot using our Radius server.
I've setup standard HTTP authentiucation and tested it and it works great logging in through the hotspot login page and uses our radius server no problem.

If I change the Hotspot authentication to just MAC authentication, it doesn't reach out to our radius server to grab the MAC credentials. Any idea where it is getting held up?

Thanks.

Got it working, but I'm not sure where the problem occurred. I disabled PPPoE server on the router and it began to work. I did have the router setup to server PPPoE originally and used the same CPE with the router over PPPoE. Maybe it held onto an ARP entry and wouldn't allow the same device to login using MAC auth???
Any insight would be great so I can troubleshoot future issues. thanks.
