If not, confirm that the pool module name is defined in the acctounting{} section of radiusd.conf and that your NAS sends accounting Stop messages.
The accounting is performed on a different machine (physically) so no poolname is be defined under the acctounting{} section. Which also means that the machine I have problems with will never see accounting packets.
Which means IP pools will not work.
For some security reasons outside of my control, this setup cannot be changed.
Those security reasons are nonsense. They're "securing" your network by ensuring that no one can log in.
Will the latest version of freeradius **really** help in this scenario ? How ? Could it automatically free up IP addresses from the pool based on a timer ?
More recent versions allow pools in SQL, which are easier to manage. I think also that the SQL pools will free IP's based on Session-Timeout. i.e. after Session-Timeout, the IP can be marked "free", even if there was no accounting packets.
