I would like to have the ability to redirect a user’s start page when they are first authenticated via radius if possible, or at least each time the user’s computer is turned on. I do want them to be able to access other sites, it is just the homepage I’d like to intercept, so it is not really a captive portal situation. Is this something that is achievable using Freeradius?
No. RADIUS does authentication, not routing, and not HTTP. You need a captive portal.
I’ve seen lots of talk about using WISPr-Redirection-URL as an attribute in the Access_Accept but I’m unsure whether this is an attribute specific to a certain NAS.
It's specific to wireless ISPs who implement a captive portal.
I’m using Cisco switches, so would I need to use a specific dictionary for those, or is there a generic attribute that will give me the result I need?
I don't think so. See the Cisco documentation for how to configure filtering/firewalling on Cisco NASes. In RADIUS, the server just sends *hints* to the NAS. The NAS is really in charge of all filtering, firewalling, etc. Alan DeKok.
