Authenticating access via caller-id or username/password

[John Ward]

Hi There,
the authentication will take place based only on the calling station id.

in one scenario: the users use usernames and passwords.

in the second scenario, a device is authenticated on the
calling-station-id as it has no username or password.
the device is put into a different part of the network.

i was thinking of this:
sql_user_name = "%{User-Name:-%{Calling-Station-Id:-DENY}}"

the problem is that the NAS returns "VOID" as the username if its left blank.

seeing as i have to tie the username to something usefull to make a
select statement i guess i'm looking for a method to put the calling
station id into the username field if the username is "VOID"

where would the best place for that be and how could it be done? I see
some nifty UNLANG examples but none that work on run time
substitutions.

Regards
John
