DHCP manages its own address pools. The trouble btw is that ISC dhcpd does not support the DHCP Authentication protocol. There is therefore no need for it to talk to RADIUS. You are apparently not understanding that freeradius is what we call a AAA server: Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting . That's fine but freeradius only speaks RADIUS. If you haven't a RADIUS client you don't talk to it. Normally, freeradius talks to a NAS which is the RADIUS client and the NAS talks to the remote user host (normally via PPP). Now, freeradius is supporting wireless but you need to have it talk to something which understands. > >>my other Question is, how I recorded what IP I've been assign to them > >>using that way? it gets logged on the host running freeradius - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
