Hi Alan,
ok I'll try to be more specific:
I have all the mac addresses (including the vlan attribute) in my users file. Can I just put in some user accounts as well and configure my switches to use the radius server for user authentication?
How do I separate the management-users from my 'fake' mac-address-users? I don't wont anyone to login to my switches with his mac address :/
OK forget about that part - I totally forgot about the 'Service-Type' attribute, sorry! But that actually leads to my next question: is there a way to avoid having cleartext passwords for my switch-users in the users file? However, there's still need for clarification on the following:
On top of that, I might also need a Radius server to authenticate wireless users against Active Directory but I'll probably use IAS here (unless its easy to add this feature to the existing freeradius setup as well).
Basically my question is: how can I separate user requests for different backends (mac-address-users-file, switch-users-file, active directory backend) on my radius server. Simply running 3 instances with different ports/configurations on the same server is probably not the way to go (is it?)

Ah yes, thanks - any hints on how to achieve this? Maybe I'm just using the wrong keywords for searching.
(a) configure user authentication (b) configure MAC authentication
There is no real difference between the two, other than the format of the User-Name attribute.
If your question was more specific, my answers could be more detailed.
