Mikrotik - Freeradius: is it really so hard?

Hi,

I’m a bit frustrated .. could someone enlighten me about a kind of configuration that takes around 2 or 3 seconds in all the rest of wifi network devices which instead is taking the whole morning at this time with no results? :slight_smile:

I’m referring to having:

client_wifi → --> (Mikrotik) → --> Freeradius/openldap

Nothing more

What I’ve achieved so far is:

Service-Type = Framed-User
NAS-Port-Id = “wlan1”
User-Name = “00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx”
User-Password = “”

What I’ve done so far is:

  • radius: added radius server address with “wireless” as the service
  • security profile: with mac_authentication (It’s the only way to find something in radiusd.log)

I could not find a single word about this kind of setup

Sorry for the frustration, but I really think a better (a human) way to accomplish this configuration should be either rethought or well documented in some place. That’s my opinion.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks
Regards
