Hi Jonathan,

It all depends on how you have deauthenication set up and what your switching 
gear supports. Here, we use snmp as a deauthentication method for our switches. 
But, you can choose from a few different methods.

Look in here to see what your switch or wireless supports:

Subject: [External] [PacketFence-users] Re-assigning network via DHCP across 
routed network

Hi there,

I am using PacketFence configured to provide services over a routed network. 
The issue I am seeing is the client device connects to an SSID, they are 
presented with the captive portal, the client authenticates and is presented 
with the “Your network access is being set up” screen.

However, at this point I would expect PacketFence to use DHCP to move the 
client from the registration VLAN in to whatever VLAN has been provided via 
radius-filter-id. However, this isn’t happening, instead the screen just says 
in red text “Your network access should be enabled within the next couple of 
minutes”…

The only way to get the client device to pick up the new VLAN/IP address is to 
turn Wi-Fi off and on again, forcing the client to make a DHCP request.

Has anyone seen this before, and can provide advice on how to enable the 
correct behaviour post-authentication?

Many thanks
Jonathan
