We have successfully installed and enjoying ( really ) freeradius eap-tls setup for our secure wifi, in an environment that looks like Client-> Proxim-AP -> FW -> Internet -> FW -> Freeradius server 1.1.7 One issue that we observed was that after some idle time on the client, the client gets disconected and it fails to auto-re-authorize. Then one has to disconect manually and reauthorize ... ( nothing in the logs of freeradius indicates that .. ) My questions are: a) Is this a normal behavior ? ( I suspect not ) b) Is it a windows XP/driver etc issue? c) AP issue ( rekeying interval = 900 and no accounting profile enabled ) d) Firewall Issue ( ports 1812:1813 are wide open for access on the radius side ) ? e) Freeradius issue ??? ( The only attribute set in mysql radgroupcheck is GROUPNAME=prv-net , Attribute=Auth-Type,op=':=' , VALUE=EAP ) Any help/Hints would be very much appreciated Kind Regards, Harry
