For example, in the clients.conf file, the only required fields are SECRET and SHORTNAME. In the NAS table, SHORTNAME is optional (can be NULL), and NASNAME cannot be NULL. So, do I copy what I had in the clients.conf SHORTNAME into the NAS table NASNAME? If so, what is SHORTNAME FOR?
nasname is equivalent to a client stanza's name in clients.conf as in "Defines a RADIUS client. The format is 'client [hostname|ip-address]'" Be sure that a hostname is resolvable at start time. shortname equals shortname insofar :) Sometimes it gets printed out (debug log, dialup admin) instead of the fq client name.
Also, what is COMMUNITY for?
Not sure, looks like being related to snmp stuff. If youd don't have something like that now you will not need it.
Which fields are used by FreeRadius and which ones are just for reference? Not sure, just wanted to supply few hints off my head
