Then that's not really the fault of FreeRadius is it?  I'm not quite
sure why you even need MAC authentication if you're using EAP-TLS unless
you're using it in a way for which it was not designed.  On top of this,
it seems to me from your email that you're expecting the AP to perform
TWO autz/auth sequences.  I could be wrong, but that's the impression
I'm getting.  This is totally unnecessary since you get the
Calling-Station-Id, aka the wireless client MAC address, in the RADIUS
requests.  You can perform MAC checking based on this attribute.  And,
if you're using EAP-TLS and you *must* have MAC address checking, this
is pretty much how you *must* do it.  Again, though, with proper use of
certificates, MAC address authentication seems like needless overhead
and a pain in the rear to administer.
