Could you help me please?
I have a new router, an AX-5400.
In the syslog I see regularly a message like this:
Dec 18 19:03:55 hostapd: eth6: STA ********* RADIUS: starting accounting session ****************

The two ***** are the MAC address of wifi adapter(?) and a 32bits length random hexadecimal value.
I know what is RADIUS, but I have no RADIUS server as far as I know... What hostapd want with it?
 
They're just normal messages, ignore them. It's just saying that hostapd is accumulating accounting information. That always happens even if you don't have a RADIUS server in use.
