  That's how the server works.  It doesn't cache attributes across
multiple packets.

  You'll need to set the VLAN in the post-auth section.  That's what
it's for.  Setting VLANs in the authorize section won't work.

  Uh.. it *will* work if you do it correctly.  There's no magic.  The
client doesn't know about post-auth versus authorize.

  Do NOT set "Auth-Type = Perl".  Why are you doing that?

  The server runs authorize, authenticate, and then post-auth.  The
reasons are historical.

  Don't set that.

  In which you don't set any additional attributes.

  And you don't set any additional attributes here.

  Set the attributes in the post-auth section.  It *will* work.

  If it doesn't, you did something wrong.  Show *what* you did, what
happened, and what you expected to see.
