      Hello,

      I am running pfSense 2.5.2. I did notice the following message "Ignoring duplicate client [..]
      under "Status / System Logs / System / General".

      I did notice the following message in the Freeradius mailing list: http://lists.freeradius.org/pipermail/freeradius-users/2021-June/100110.html

      I am trying setup a sample dhcp server with freeradius 3.0.22. The same configuration is working fine with freeradius-3.0.12. The only difference is a warning at the end of server's startup:

      Ignoring duplicate client 10.0.0.0
      You can ignore it

      I've already pushed a fix for the v3.0.x branch.

      *Thanks Alan for your quick reply, will do.

      I did notice that the Freeradius package depends on "freeradius3-3.0.22".

      Currently I am looking into an issue where some laptops aren't able to connect successfully to the Wi-Fi network. It looks likes this is happening throughout the day but especially in the morning. I think I might hit some limit. I did tweak some settings like "Maximum Requests Tracked" + "Maximum Request Timeout" + "Cleanup Delay". I did also incremented "Max connections" for the NAS / Clients - but that should only be applicable to TCP (client protocol). I am using UDP. I think there's not much I can change. Any suggestions are welcome.

      I did notice that the most recent version of Freeradius is 3.0.23_1: https://www.freshports.org/net/freeradius3
      I would like to try this new version but I am not sure if this is feasible or that I should wait for an updated package.

      There are 28 access points in the network and one controller. I did multiply 30 * 512 for the "Maximum Request Tracked" and did increment "Maximum Request Timeout" to "45" and "Cleanup Delay" to "15". I did change "Access-Reject Delay" to "3". There are approximately 55 laptops connecting to the network.

      I am hoping someone could send me in the right direction. Thank you.
