Hey Julian,

We don't run the WLSM, but we do run IOS APs and use WDS, which operates in the same manner as you describe. (Auth requests are aggregated by the WDS master AP, while accounting is sent by individual APs.)

We also use EAP-TTLS instead of LEAP.

I had a couple tickets open with the TAC a couple summers ago about this. The end result was that if our RADIUS server sent the "User-Name" attribute back in the Access-Accept packet, the APs wold use it to log the proper username when they sent accounting packets.

In addition, because we have other .1x platforms that aren't reliable at reporting the username in accounting packets, I wrote a hook for our Radius server that logs sufficient accounting information from the access-request/access-accept packets. With the time and calling/called station ids it's not clean, but it does work.

Oh, We use OSC's RADIATOR as our radius server.
