Is it possible that this is the first device that you have used on you network that
actually does fast reauthentication?  Many devices won't unless you tell them

If that's the case you're not saving the necessary authorization attributes into
the cache or pulling them back out.  This is a bit complicated to do, as some of
them may be determined inside the inner tunnel.

eapol_test can be used to test fast reauthentication, you just have to do a bit of
mangling of the output to find the attributes that the server is sending during
a fast-reauthentication versus the ones it gets on the first authentication:

eapol_test -t 4 -c <conf file with username, password, etc> -r 1 -a IP_OF_FREERADIUS -p PORT_OF_FREERADIUS -s SHARED_SECRET -M<FAKE_MAC_ADDRESS_CSID>  -N4:x:0x<FAKE_NAS_IP_IN_HEX> -N30:s:<FAKE_CALLED_STATION_ADDRESS> | perl -ne '$m = 1 if m/Triggering EAP reauthentication/; $m = 0 if m/MSCHAP/; print if $m;' | grep -A1 'Attribute 81 (Tunnel-Private-Group-Id)'
