The internal pointer to RADIUS client configuration needs to be
updated whenever a new hostapd configuration is loaded. Without
this, freed memory may be dereferenced and this can result in
segmentation faults.
This is not actually used at all and it looks like the rules for
maintaining the old/new RADIUS configuration are not very clear in the
case the RADIUS client configuration did not change. Consequently, it
is better to just remove this for now and if similar functionality is
ever needed, redesign it to be easier to use without causing hard to
find issues with using freed memory.
Simpler approach to reconfiguring the RADIUS client would involve
just deinitializing the old context unconditionally and initializing
a new one whenever the configuration could have changed.
Allow the user to set the IP address of the eapol_test client. This if
very useful when you have a machine with many interfaces and want to use a
particular one for testing RADIUS connectivity. For instance when I run the
national eduroam proxy I can only connect to other server from a particular
address, an our machine happens to have several IPs. So if I want to run
connectivity tests, I must make sure that my test uses a particular
interface. The -A option allows one to set this).
(jm: cleaned up to use radius configuration structure instead of global
variable for the address and added IPv6 support)
