The captive portal has the following option: "MAC filtering - Disable MAC filtering If this option is set, no attempts will be made to ensure that the MAC address of clients stays the same while they're logged in. This is required when the MAC address of the client cannot be determined (usually because there are routers between pfSense and the clients). If this is enabled, RADIUS MAC authentication cannot be used."
This sounds useful. It could fix the difficulty we have of requiring LAN users, who want to add wifi in their home, that they need to use wireless access points, not wireless routers (or wireless routers configured as purely wireless access points, for those that support this), so that they don't ruin our charging model. People find the technical differences hard to understand. So, how does pfSense track people with this option enabled? How does it work? -- Pete Boyd Open Plan IT - http://openplanit.co.uk The Golden Ear - http://thegoldenear.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: support-unsubscr...@pfsense.com For additional commands, e-mail: support-h...@pfsense.com Commercial support available - https://portal.pfsense.org
