Hi Alan, just another confirm to check if I understood correctly: So now because of the misconfiguration of the NAS I have IPs in the radippool table assigned to users not existing anymore in the radius tables (users that ceased the service) with expiry_time in the past. If I update those users NAS and add the interim-update, should those record be cleared? And, speaking of expiry_time: what is in that case the best pratice, together with the 10 minutes interim-time? One hour (the default value) would be fine? Thanks!

we enabled the interim-update on a sigle nas and captured the packets, now the Interim-request are being sent and received by the radius,
another doubt: should radius update the expiry_time of the users connecting via that NAS in the radippool table when an interim update is received? Yes. That's what the default configuration does, for a large number of reasons.
Think about it this way... do you want the IP to expire 30 seconds after FreeRADIUS gets an update packet? Even if there's no "stop" packet? What would happen if the IP expired like that?
The default configuration and queries *work*.
