How is FreeRADIUS supposed to know when a user disconnects and frees up the IP address from the pool if the NAS doesn't tell it? Anything else is not exactly reliable. If you have a user with a long duration session that lasts longer than your timeout the IP could be put back into the pool when it is still in use.
Ok, you're right, but in my case I know the client session can't last more than 24hrs. So, for me it's ok to remove all *inactive* entries older than that. But, as far as I know, this seems to be impossible with gdm pool. So, what the "maximum_timeout" parameter is useful for ???
The best solution would be to fix the NAS to send the packets or fix the network to make sure they get delivered.
Obviously, but I can't manage over that. It's out of my control. So I need a method to avoid my pool being filled up by missing acct-stop. Thanks again.
