Hi Boyu,

I think your issue is the client not renewing the IP address automatically.
With WiFi, you would usually send the
WiFi device or WiFi controller a Radius Disconnect or an CoA and it will
bump the device momentarily and the
client will ask for a new lease and target the right IP address.

I am not sure how this is done for Wired connections, I guess you need to
do the same CoA or Radius disconnect to the switch
port to get the client "bumped". This would be the same as you
unplugging/re-plugging the Ethernet cable.

Hope this points you in the right direction.
