Hello, I am trying to configure freeradius to auto-authenticate or connect users. let's say I have mac address table which has a whitelist for mac address, how can I configure freeradius to connect these mac address automatically without a web page,
You don't. You configure the NAS to do MAC address authentication. That sends a RADIUS packet with the MAC address to FreeRADIUS. FreeRADIUS can then look that MAC up in the database, and return accept / reject.
I don't know how can I do that, actually I am working on hotspot system, I can connect users when they send request from a web page, but what about the devices which do not have web browser like (Printer), how can I do that.
See the hotspot documentation for how to configure MAC address authentication. In short, the RADIUS server needs to get MAC addresses in the Access-Request packets. If that doesn't happen, then no amount of poking the RADIUS server will make things magically work. Alan DeKok.
