Hello -
I've perused the archives for awhile, so I know this is decently dealt with, but hopefully my questions are new.
<snip>
Does anybody know how VOPRadius does this? Or does anybody know how this "Ping of Death" works and if FreeRadius can do this? Or does anybody know a simple, non-SNMP way to have a user disconnected?
No, if you don't have administrative access on the NAS, then there is no way to disconnect a user.
Cisco ( and possibly a few others ) have developed a proprietary method to disconnect users, that works by sending a radius packet to the NAS, rather than an SNMP call. It is not enabled by default, and I do not think that it would work in a proxy-radius/outsourced environment.
Your outsourced dialup provider may provide you with a method that would allow you to disconnect users at your request, but it would require more external checks than exist within radius, so it would be outside the scope of what FreeRADIUS ( or any other server ) can do.
