Hi guys,
I’m more one doubt about mac authentication with radius.
Today, I using MT 2.9 with mac auth via freeradius, I would like know if possible delivery an ip address through radius after the customer be authenticated, It’s possible ?
I don’t think you can do this over an IP connection. RADIUS used to do this on old Dialup Terminal Server devices, but the negotiation was done at raw serial datacomms level before PPP and the IP layer is initiated.
Once you’ve got an IP address it’s pretty hard to force the client to change it.
The only way I can think of doing it is maybe using scripting to force a new address and then require the user to disconnect and reconnect, a bit kludgy, but it might work. I haven’t looked at the scripting in MT yet, so don’t shoot me down in flames if this is nonsense!
It might be worthwhile explaining why you want to do this, it’s possible the problem could be solved using an entirely different approach.
