If they are different SSIDs on the Cisco WLC, you should be able to assign 
different radius servers for each SSID. Do that, e.g:
ssid1 -> 192.0.2.1:1645
ssid2 -> 192.0.2.1:1812

Then use a different FreeRADIUS virtual server to handle each (i.e. on 
virtual server listening on port 1812 , and one listening on port 1812).

This way you can keep the intricacies of each separate.
