Summary0001260: redirect loop on the captive portal because VLAN [re-]assignment failed
DescriptionSNMP uses UDP. Sometimes VLAN changes fails to reach the network devices, especially on busy periods. Especially on busy controllers when there are a lot of deauthentication to do.

When it happens, nodes are stuck on the registration VLAN and if they hit the captive portal they get into a redirect loop.

Instead of that redirect loop, we could try again to deauth / vlan change the user that we think shouldn't be here.
TagsNo tags attached.

The code is completed. I will test it in the lab tomorrow then commit. It's more intrusive than I originally thought because I can't call flip (because it doesn't support inline mode) and going through pf::enforcement wouldn't bypass the locationlog's potential out-of-date'ness. Added a "force" option to pf::enforcement instead.
