@Rudic i tried your solution:

However, I do not get the desired output. Below is how i debug your code:

Code:
iplist=$1
declare -A IPASS
IFS=,
for i in $iplist;
   do
     echo "Value is:$i"
     IPASS[$i]=${#IPASS[@]};
   done

echo "Printing ARRAY:${IPASS[*]}"

IFS=$' \t\n'

{ while read LN
    do [ ${IPASS[$LN]} ] &&     { RC=${IPASS[$LN]}
                                  unset IPASS[$LN]
                                }
        echo "$RC">>moht.txt
        echo "$LN">>moht1.txt
    done < file
  for i in ${!IPASS[@]}
    do
      echo ":$i:" >> checkthis.txt
      echo "*${IPASS[$i]}*" >> checkthis1.txt
    done
} |
    sort -s | cut -f2-

Neither checkthis.txt or checkthis1.txt is generated.

moht1.txt has the unsorted IP filedetails listings.

Can you please guide me as to how I can redirect the output of your code to a file so that I have the desired output shared in the original post. I also tried sort -s | cut -f2- >> final_output.txt but it too did not have the desired output.

radeapclient

RADEAPCLIENT(1) 						 FreeRADIUS Daemon						   RADEAPCLIENT(1)

NAME

       radeapclient - send EAP packets to a RADIUS server, calculate responses

SYNOPSIS

       radeapclient  [-c  count] [-d raddb_directory] [-f file] [-h] [-i source_ip] [-q] [-s] [-r retries] [-S file] [-t timeout] [-v] [-x] server
       {acct|auth} secret

DESCRIPTION

       radeapclient is a radius client program. It can send arbitrary radius packets to a radius server, then shows the reply.	Radeapclient  dif-
       fers from radclient in that if there is an EAP-MD5 challenge, then it will be responded to.

       radeapclient is otherwise identical to radclient.

       The EAP-Identity attribute, if present is used to construct an EAP Identity message.

       The EAP-MD5-Password attribute, if present is used to respond to an MD5 challenge.

       No other EAP types are currently supported.

OPTIONS

       -c count
	      Send each packet count times.

       -d raddb
	      Set dictionary directory.

       -f file
	      Read packets from file, not stdin.

       -r retries
	      If timeout, retry sending the packet retries times.

       -t timeout
	      Wait timeout seconds before retrying (may be a floating point number).

       -h     Print usage help information.

       -i id  Set request id to 'id'.  Values may be 0..255

       -S file
	      Read secret from file, not command line.

       -q     Quiet, do not print anything out.

       -s     Print out summary information of auth results.

       -v     Show program version information.

       -x     Enable debugging mode.

EXAMPLE

       A sample session that queries the remote server with an EAP-MD5 challenge.

	      ( echo 'User-Name = "bob"';
		echo 'EAP-MD5-Password = "hello"';
		echo 'NAS-IP-Address = marajade.sandelman.ottawa.on.c';
		echo 'EAP-Code = Response';
		echo 'EAP-Id = 210';
		echo 'EAP-Type-Identity = "bob";
		echo 'Message-Authenticator = 0x00';
		echo 'NAS-Port = 0' ) >req.txt

	      radeapclient -x localhost auth testing123 <req.txt
