The pool module does not do this. It assigns IPs based on a configurable 
hash of NAS attributes. By default, this is NAS IP and port number. Your 
users will therefore get a random IP from the pool each time they connect.

If you want to assign fixed IPs per-user, use the rlm_passwd module to 
key on username. It would look something like this:

modules {
   passwd user2ip {
     filename = /etc/freeradius/user2ip
     format = "*User-Name:=Framed-IP-Address"
     hashsize = 100
   }
}

authorize {
   preprocess
   files
   user2ip
}

Then in /etc/freeradius/user2ip:

username:1.2.3.4
userfoo:5.6.7.8

Fix the permissions.

They are binary/dbm files. They are created and maintained by 
freeradius. There is no "syntax"
