Don't use the AP-3 if you want to use the Session-Timeout attribute. They've been unable to get this right for as long as I can remember, even though their release notes say that they support it.
>From my experience, there *is* no other option other than rebooting the AP. With the latest firmware (v2.4.5), I have been unable to get Session-Timeout to work, and you can't set the reauth lifetime in the AP itself to anything less than 2 hours. It's a bug, and they're "working on it"... Proxim lacks a lot in their RADIUS client implementation. They have enough to get it working, but working "well" is another issue. My advice? If you want an enterprise-class AP, get a Cisco. It might cost a slight bit more up front, but you'll definitely recoup that in not having to deal with the headaches. --Mike On Tue, 2004-03-23 at 09:19, Alex Barsky wrote: > Hi Everybody! > This is an absolutely incredible discussion group! > I was able to setup 802.1x / PEAP Authentication for the Windows XP > Supplicant just following some of the discussions. > > There is my problem: > I want to setup hotspot, I use FreeRADIUS ( FreeBSD ) and ORINOCO > AP-2000 ( actually Avaya AP-3 ). > Now, I want to be able to drop users from WLAN when their account is > expired.
