Freeradius + Captive Portal . Unable to "Assign IP address"
-
I have installed freeradius and it's working all fine except it's not assigning ip address [FRAMED-IP-ADDRESS] to client manually . The client it getting ip address from a DHCP lease.

By the time a user reaches Captive Portal they already have an IP address. You can't reassign them address after Captive Portal login. It's too late.
To assign IP addresses to a user via RADIUS on a local network you need L2 access control like 802.1x -- in your switches/APs, not the firewall.
