Description

it will be a brilliant to set the static DHCP mapping only one time on a RADIUS server & use it for DHCP leases & to authenticate with captive portal & many others....
We have to add a static mapping with DHCP & add the same data to freeradius for captive portal.

Unlikely there will be a way to make this happen. There isn't a way for DHCP to send the request off to a RADIUS server to get that info.

It sounds more like you want 802.1x on your switch to handle address allocation. That specific scenario isn't going to be viable to pull off on the firewall alone. Post on the forum for assistance if needed.

That said, The new Kea DHCP server from ISC has a premium version which does have this feature. Thus I don't see it ever making its way into the older ISC DHCP server code. You could always setup a dedicated DHCP server instead of using pfSense for this.
