Re: Can Session-Timeout be used to force users to re-authenticate?

I am trying to force my wireless clients to re-authenticate with the RADIUS server every 30 minutes (1800 seconds) with the Session-Timeout setting. Currently I am testing with just one user, and the Session-Timeout = 1800 setting is being sent with the Radius Access Accept message (I can see it in the Accept Accept message when I run in debug mode). However, this seems to have no affect. The user does not re-authenticate at the given interval.

Then the AP does not support Session-Timeout. There really isn't a good way to do this, if the AP doesn't support it. Alan DeKok. -- http://deployingradius.com - The web site of the book http://deployingradius.com/blog/ - The blog
