That's a bit easier, but will depend on how you're looking up vlans.

For example, we used to do this:

authorize {
   update control {
     Tmp-String-0 := "%{sql:select vlan ...}"
   }

   if (control:Tmp-String-0) {
     update reply {
      Tunnel-Private-Group-Id = "%{control:Tmp-String-0}"
     }
   }
   else {
     # mac address is unknown - use fallback vlan
     update reply {
       Tunnel-Private-Group-Id = 1234
     }
   }
}

If you were using rlm_passwd you could do something like:

modules {
   passwd macvlan {
     # this file should contain: m:a:c:a:d:r,vlan

     filename = ${confdir}/macvlan.txt
     format = "*Calling-Station-Id:=Tunnel-Private-Group-Id"
     delimiter = ","
   }

}

authorize {

   mac2vlan
   if (notfound) {
     update reply {
       Tunnel-Private-Group-Id = 1234
     }
   }
}

...and so on.
