Exactly my thought when I read the original post. Aren't you already
doing authentication in RADIUS? What are you really trying to
accomplish with "authentication?"

What don't you like about radius? MT can do straight MAC auth through
radius on the wireless interface. I'm not real sure how your radius
server is going to provision anything if it isn't doing the
authentication. What are you using as a billing/provisioning platform?

I am interested in finding an alternative way to authenticate all
of my wireless customers. Currently we use pppoe and I would like
to get away from it. I use mikrotik AP’s and my network is OSPF
routed. I tried using hotspot mac auth and it worked and still
works in some of my AP’s but some of the more crowded locations
fell on their face. I am looking for either a way to improve that
method or I need a centralized box that would control
authentication and let my billing server and radius server still
provision speeds and determine that a customer has paid their
bill. Currently I am open to suggestions of what authentication
options are available with my mikrotik equipment and I am willing
to pay consultation fees if necessary when I get an Idea that will
work like I want it to. Also, I hand out both private IP’s and
public IP’s only when the customer requests them, and currently if
a customer requests a public static I create a custom profile in
radius and they get the only IP in a custom pool setup for that
profile. Thank you in advance for any and all advice and ideas.
