Topic: freeradius client and dynamic public ip

Hello everyone,

I've got a question about the integration of client NAS with FreeRADIUS.

FreeRADIUS load the client using 'nas' table with ip adress as identifier and only permit this ip to act as NAS.
As my FreeRADIUS and NAS aren't on the same network (FreeRADIUS on a dedicated server on Internet and the NAS in a home network) i enter in nas table the public ip of the NAS.
But in France with some ISP, public ip (in my 'nas' table) of host change daily, so it would be a problem for the NAS.

Can I user domain Name in NAS table instead of ip address?
Any other idea?

Re: freeradius client and dynamic public ip

if I use for example DynDNS to update hotsname on a particular ip, do i need to restart freeRADIUS ?
I don't understand what DNS lookup mean, any explanation?
