      We havent changed RELENG_1's captive portal code in quite a while.  That is not it.

        Sorry but I'm a bit confused.
        Is the 'session-timeout' attribute supported or not?

          Session timeout is working fine for me here.  But I am in no way using radius.

            Right.
            When not using radius, it's working fine.

            Question is - what happens when using radius?
            There's a special box to use Session-Timeout attribute received from the radius so why is that not functioning?

            Thanks.

              Could be.  I don't know.  Will check it out.

              Any new regarding this issue?

              Thanks.

                  No.

                  I've been too busy to test this yet, sorry.  I have a lot of travel in the next few weeks so it may be a little while.

                    You might want to test this with m0n0wall and bring this to attention at the m0n0 list if it's the same there. pfSense's captive portal is a nearly exact copy of the m0n0 CP though it's not the version used  in the latest m0n0wall.

                      Looks like m0n0wall's beta 1.23b1 has improvement on that issue:

                      hanges in captive portal (jdegraeve)

                      * fixed a bug in the way we handle authentication mechanisms (potentially allowing double logins and faulty locking)
                          * add support for different MAC address formatting styles
                          * add support for per-user bandwidth limitation (using well-known WISPr RADIUS attributes)
                      http://m0n0.ch/wall/beta.php

                      So if you're really stuck, you might want to take a look at m0n0wall for the mean time.

                        We have already backported this code to HEAD but it will not appear in 1.0.  I agree with namezero, if this is such a big issue then please run m0n0wall.
