If you dont have freeRADIUS installed yet you can refer to this short guide: Installing FreeRadius

If you'd like to enable your clients with ability to change passwords go to Client Functions in your product config, and make sure "Change Password" function is enabled.
Q: What are groups in product config, how to use them?
A:
- Groups are fetched from mysql table radgroupcheck of freeradius mysql database
- if no group is available/selected in product config - user group feature will not be used
- if group is set in configuration - it will be used to add user to radusergroup table
Q: What happens in the freeradius system when a customer is suspended in HostBill?
A: To distinguish suspended user, he is being moved automatically to group "HB-Suspended"
HB-Suspended group is added automatically by HostBill. Its auth-type is set to reject to prevent user from login.
On unsuspension, user is removed from HB-Suspended group
