I considered that, it's just not very flexible if you don't control the
CPE either :) I think the incoming RADIUS option is the one true way.

If incoming radius isn’t an option, you could use SNMP to command the

Yeah, I'm doing it directly into the database. Looks like FreeRADIUS
has some functions to proxy CoA/Disconnect requests though, although
poorly documented, so I'm digging into that. Thanks for the direction,
definitely helped!

I meant on the MT. As for radius, how does the radius get
attributes set? Are you just accessing the db directly? If you
don't have access to the radius server, it would be difficult as
the send function is a manual command. But you could always log
into the MT and knock it off through CLI or API.

Because I might not have access to SSH/CLI on that RADIUS server
if it's not a server I control. I'm trying to find a way that
isn't reliant on Mikrotik as the NAS, seems like the disconnect
packet is the right way. Looks like maybe it can be done using
unlang or the rlm_perl/python modules to trigger based on some
other event though.. still messing with it.

Why wouldn't it come from the radius you configured? Or why
not add another ip as another radius that only accepts
incoming requests if you don't want to use the regular radius?
Alternatively, it can be done through cli on ssh or through
the API.

Hmm, well after playing with it, it seems that Mikrotik
doesn't like the incoming RADIUS commands being sent unless it
originates from the RADIUS server it is configured to use,
which makes life difficult. Is this the solution everyone here
is using to force a refresh of attributes?

That certainly sounds like the best solution. Thanks!

PPPOE can be dropped with an incoming radius command.

How are you handling changes to your services
today if you're using PPPoE?
For example, let's say a customer is receiving
specific attributes to set their speed, or IP
address, or whether they should be redirected to a
splash page. If you change one of these
attributes, what is your current strategy for
forcing a re-auth to update the attributes? Seems
like it is pretty easy while you're on the phone
with a customer to either login to your own gear
and reauth the session, or tell them to reboot
their router, or whatever their authenticated
device is. But if they are disabled and they make
a payment on a splash page, it seems like it would
be likely to generate a service call if the splash
page tried telling them to do something like
reboot their router or radio.
