Ah, I've maybe misread the docs, but I've assumed, that the macauth is just
authentication based on the MAC and I've missed the point, that if the user
isn't authenticated, then she would be redirected to the UAM. So this is
actually solution, thanks.

That's of course one of the assumptions, that they would be reachable by the
broadcasts.

Thanks.
