Hopefully we can just send accounting plus a simple 2-packet macauth to Clearpass to get policy/posture advice, and clearpass and it's CoA mechanisms will be happy and never know the difference.

  Configure a "radius" module to talk to the Clearpass server.  Run the module twice for challenge / response.  Maybe 20 lines of "unlang".
