        @anwarmoinudeen As I recall, I hadn't solved this issue, and I gave up NPS radius server test. I hope @mohkhalifa would provide the guide in detail.

          Old topic but try this:

          First you need to know the vendor code for PFSENSE which I found in https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/blob/master/src/usr/share/doc/radius/dictionary.pfsense

          VENDOR		pfSense				13644
          
          BEGIN-VENDOR	pfSense
          
          ATTRIBUTE	pfSense-Bandwidth-Max-Up		1	integer
          ATTRIBUTE	pfSense-Bandwidth-Max-Down		2	integer
          ATTRIBUTE	pfSense-Max-Total-Octets		3	integer
          
          END-VENDOR pfSense
          

          Now you can go to your network policy in NPS for the captive portal. Go to:
          SETTINGS, VENDOR SPECIFIC, ADD, "custom", "Vendor specific/Radius standard", ADD,ADD:

          • Enter Vendor Code = 13644
          • Yes it conforms
          • configure Attribute -> 1 for pfSense-Bandwidth-Max-Up with decimal and you bandwidth

          repeat for 2 = pfSense-Bandwidth-Max-Down

          Untested but this should work in theory.

              @anwarmoinudeen I know this is old, just want to update here, I tried to use NPS on server 2016 as RADIUS server today, and it works without any issue.
              Pfsense version is 2.7.0, RADIUS MS-CHAPv2 .

                  FreeRadius is not " NPS on server 2016 as RADIUS server".

                  06287932-9d42-4da4-83b7-b7134765be43-image.png

                  Instead of install the FreeRadius pfSense package, @yanqian installed a Radius serves on a Micorsoft (server ?) and use that Radius server.
                  It isn't a free one (as it is from Microsoft) 😊

                  He probably used this :

                  a7f4a7ee-5f77-497a-bbdf-e2b3e2b3334d-image.png

                  to set up an external authorization/authentication (Radius) server.

                  No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                  Edit : and where are the logs ??
