Description

Since 2.4.4 the behavior of Radius MAC authentication changed.

In 2.4.3 user was redirected to the login page when MAC Authentication failed. Since 2.4.4, RADIUS MAC Authentication Failed. is displayed instead.

This has been done in purpose, it was by design in the captive portal update. The point was to get a captive portal that only authenticate users using RADIUS MAC Authentication.

Some users would like to have an option to fall back on the login page when using RADIUS MAC auth. The use case would be "normal" users authenticate with user/password while special users & servers would use MAC authentication.
