Thats a good way to do it. If you will have alot of RF clients though,
it might be better to put something like this in your users file:
$INCLUDE /etc/raddb/users-rf
and make users-rf look something like this:
000000-000000 Auth-Type = Local, Password = "yourpassword"
Framed-IP-Address = 255.255.255.254
Where 000000-000000 would be the mac of the client.
Just make sure you set the "Password" field the same as what you set the
shared secret to on the Access Points.
Also, dont forget to edit the clients and naslist files to include the
right information.
