Hi,

I have a freeradius setup generating COA successfully (when neccesary) after receiving accounting packets.

This works well.

Now I want to also make Freeradius generate a COA by some other means. e.g. a tech support guy clicking "disconnect" on a web page.

I.e. I want to somehow "trigger" a coa that is not caused by an "update coa {}" block, but by some external trigger.

Is this possible in any way?

You can use "radclient" to generate CoA packets; just have your script do that. FreeRadius can (I think) then receive and send on the CoA packets; I'm not sure precisely how you do that, but I think it's documented in the "sites-available/coa" example.
