RE: Malfunctioning Nomadix
Hi, I've seen this with our Nomadix USG and AG series devices as well - often the NSE will send requests multiple times, but I can never understand why. There are a few other bugs in the RADIUS code in Nomadix as well, for example I have never managed to get round robin working as I would expect (50% to each server). With our RADIUS setup the multiple stop or start packets do not cause any problems as the session ID is unique so a duplicate cannot be inserted into our accounting database. I am in discussions with developers at Nomadix at the moment about stability issues, and I have also mentioned these RADIUS issues to them as well - hopefully they will be fixed soon! Which devices and firmware versions do you have this problem with? rob. -----Original Message----- From: Santiago Balaguer García [mailto:santiagoawa@hotmail.com] Sent: 22 June 2006 12:48 To: freeradius-users@lists.freeradius.org Subject: Malfunctioning Nomadix Hi, I have a possible bug in Nomadix devices but I am not sure and it is a RADIUS problem. These hotspots normally works fairly, however some of them sometimes have a strange behavior. Nomadix sends more then one authentication requests to RADIUS server for disconnecting. It write the same entry several times in my DB, this fact corrupts my stadistics. I send you several accounts in the attachment with this case in a same hotspot Nomadix. _________________________________________________________________ ¿Estás pensando en cambiar de coche?

True. Nomadix developers told me ir is a problem of my RADIUS server. I think it is almost impossible because Radius server it is a 'silly' machine. If a NSE tells radius thatinsert a registes in radacct, radius server does and it is supposed NAS controls its ID's. It is true I can add a DB rule that verifies the existence of a ID unique. Sincerelly, I wrork with other NASes (Gemtek P-560, P-564, ISS2000, MTR amphora, MT...) and Nomadix ( AG2000 and 2100) cause some errors. Moreover, this device can not well implemented the SNMP MIB.

If the NAS sends multiple accounting packets when they had been ACK'd, then it's broken. Alan DeKok.
