I have purchased a Linksys SLM248G switch that has 802.1x support.  I am 
new to radius server and would like to use this switch to authenticate 
ports for a lab to a freeradius server.  I have installed freeradius 
2.1.0 on freebsd 7.0 system.

It is the default configuration for FreeRadius 2.1.0 with the following 
added to the  client.conf.
client 128.227.232.133 {
         secret = thisislinksys
         shortname = 232.133
     }
The Linksys switch is setup as follows:
IP address: 128.227.220.28
Priority: 0
Authenticatio port: 1812
number of retries: 3
timeout for reply: 3
dead time: 0
key string: thisislinksys
source IP address: 128.227.232.133
usage type: 802.1x

The WindowsXP setup:
enable 802.1x auth: checked
EAP type: MD5-challenge

I do not see any output from the Freeradius server running radiusd -X.
