Cisco Meraki ClientVPN calling-station-ID change?

[Jacob13]

I have an MX configured to use radius authentication for the client VPN and right now it sends "CLIENTVPN" as the calling-station-id. Is there a way to have it send something useful, like the client's IP address instead?

Trying to get IP Whitelisting setup via our Radius server for our clientVPN connection but the only external IP that appears to be passed in 'CLIENTVPN'.

Take a look at this.

I see, thanks. I have a ticket open to meraki support to see maybe another field that is passed would contain the info I need. Hopefully we don't have to swap to AnyConnect for this functionality.

There is no way to change the Calling-Station-Id in the L2TP/IPsec Client VPN.
The recommendation is to migrate to AnyConnect, which sends more useful information and does not use "CLIENTVPN".

Ok thanks. Anyconnect isn't a valid option for us at the moment so we will look elsewhere.
