  Wireshark looks at raw packets received on the network.  i.e. before any firewall rules are applied.

  Yes.

  If the server receives a packet, it prints a debug message saying that.

  If the server receives a packet from an unknown client, it prints out "received packet from unknown client".

  If the server receives a packet from a known client, it processes the packet.

  As I said... look at SeLinux and/or firewall rules.  No amount of poking FreeRADIUS will fix this.
