Hi there,

we have FreeRadius 2.1.12 installed in our lab mostly for testing purpose of our nodes.

Now we have started to evaluate CoA on FreeRadius for both scenarios:

a) Receive CoA packets from Node

b) Send CoA-Requests to node (and analyze CoA-Ack, CoA-Nack

Reading through several pages i always found "radclient" with the option "coa" to send/initiate CoA-Packets.

And some of my colleagues (development) also use radclient for this purpose.

BUT if i look at our radclient (v2.1.12) the coa option is missing there ?

Last login: Sat May 5 15:17:27 2012 from dhcp-10-61-100-168.cisco.com

[freeradius@sca-radius ~]$ radclient

Usage: radclient [options] server[:port] <command> [<secret>]

<command> One of auth, acct, status, or disconnect.

Is it possible that this coa option was removed with v2.1.12 (or earlier) ?

If yes, is there an alternative to send CoA packets from FreeRadius server ?

I don't want to send CoA packets as a follow up to Access Request packet, but want to start it

from FreeRadius.

Many thanks for any helpful feedback,

Thorsten
