Your simplest solution may then be to just create two identical
entries in your SQL database for each set of credentials. One with
username = the username, and the other with username = serial
number.

That will keep your FreeRADIUS config much simpler.

The SQL statements can all be modified, so you should be able to
do something with it along these lines.

But breaking it down to its simplest, one person can log in with
two accounts. So put two accounts in the database.

Otherwise, use unlang to work out what type of username is being
used, and depending on that call the appropriate sql module, or
use the appropriate sql statements.
