Re: providing IP address depending NAS origin

> The second. Your sum up is very clear ;-)

AFAIK there is no easy way for the second... if it would be one static ip per
use then it would be no problem, but if you want the static ip to depend on the
NAS via which he is connecting, then there is a problem...

Oops, I should have re-checked rlm_ippool... it checks config_itmes by default,
which is not correct, you need the request packet... so you will need to change
the source :/ (sorry about that)

Changing the radius.h file isn't enough... you need to modify rlm_ippool.c:

Change /src/modules/rlm_ippool/rlm_ippool.c:

From:
if ((vp = pairfind(request->config_items, PW_POOL_NAME)) != NULL){

To:
if ((vp = pairfind(request->packet->vps, PW_NAS_IP_ADDRESS)) != NULL)

(instead of PW_NAS_IP_ADDRESS you could set it to PW_POOL_NAME/another name and
define it in radius.h)

All you should do is set the pool-name name in the config file to the
NAS-IP-Address (or the attribute you set)

Yes, but mine does some other things too... (one of those is allow you to set
the attribute that should be checked in the config, but this doesn't seem the
right place to describe it in detail)
