Description

Idea:
The Captive Portal Interface assigns an IP via the internal DHCP Server whitch lease time is limited to 10-30 seconds. If the client authenitcates at the CP, the radius server sends the ID of the VLAN the client should assigned to. Now the PFsense creates a bridge between the clients MAC and the Interface the VLAN is configured to (maybe a list at the CP-Option page like: VLAN 1 is LAN IF, VLAN 2 is OPT1 IF ...). After the clients DHCP lease ends it asks for a new IP, whitch is returned by the DHCP Server at the chosen IF. Now the client is authenticated.
