Mikal-
  Yes, I have done a packet trace.  The Filter-Id attribute is sent on the
2nd packet of the authentication attempt, during the first
access-challenge.  After that, Filter-Id isnt mentioned again until after
the Access-Accept packet on the Accounting-Request.  However, on the
Accounting-Request packet its shown as Students, not Faculty.  The whole
authentication process is 20 packets, excluding the accounting packets.  The
only thing I noticed that may be out of the ordinary is that there are 10
access-request packets, with 9 of them being duplicates to the first
request.  The Filter-Id attribute is only sent on the first challenge
response. Im not sure if this is normal or not as I dont have anything to
compare to.

Do you see something similar with your configuration?
