Yes, it is definitley my bad english.
I am not using freeradius as DHCP, i am using freeradius as mac address
checker. That part is working ok. I am using freeradius for long time
and it is a great product. But, cisco ISG is new to me.
I have setup cisco ISG as a DHCP server. when cisco receives DHCP
request it takes MAC address and asks freeradius if that mac address has
access to internet. Based on freeradius Access-Accept/Reject i am using
diferent policies applied to user.
And it works. At least for CPE devices. But, CM and MTA devices need
tftp server name and tftp file name. My problem is, and i have searched
for more than 15 days, how or even if possible, to use freeradius to
send BOOTP parameters to cisco. Since i wasn't able to find anything
about that on cisco site i was just asking if anyone has ever done
something similar to help me. I wasn't asking how would i do that in
freeradius or am i able to do that in freeradius. I know freeradius is
capable of that. I just don't know where to look. I was searching for
"cisco isg bootp freeradius avpairs" and lot more different searches on
google but nothing usable came up.
I am sorry for misunderstanding, i wasn't being rude, just out of
options. Since, in my project i will use freeradius i thought that
someone else did the same thing before me and because of that i have
asked a question here.
Thank you and sorry again
