is there any radius or freeradius feature with accouting my lan users data means user authentication by lan and freeradius accouting that data

If you mean, can you have something other than FreeRADIUS as an authenticator and still record the users accounting data . That is entirely dependent on your NAS... Certainly the protocol supports it, and theres even an accounting record attribute specifying what authenticated the user, the accounting record is in regards to. We have a static WEP bssid set up on our access points, and the access points still generate accounting packets for the client associated. If however your talking about some magical feature in FreeRADIUS, where it sits on your lan at some key point , and generates accounting data ... then no. It would be perfectly possible to write a client that did this with passive packet inspection, which could then forward on the results to the FreeRADIUS server, however FreeRADIUS won't do this itself.

Yes like microtik but this functionality in single linux box. Hugh Messenger <hugh@alaweb.com> wrote: satish patel said:

Sounds like you need something like Mikrotik's RouterOS with Hotspot. See www.mikrotik.com. The Mikrotik box can then talk to FreeRadius for authentication and accounting.

FreeRADIUS accounts whatever it is sent. If your switch can send that data, then FreeRADIUS will happily receive it. -- Peter Nixon http://peternixon.net/ - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
