Hi Alan, >> 1. In which case will a radius client request for the >> above service type or which radius clients usually >> request for the above service-type ?
> http://www.freeradius.org/rfc/attributes.html > Click on "Service-Type", and it will tell you what >those values mean, and when they're used. I actually posted the question after reading the RFC. The RFC tells you a lot about the standard, but not about the current practice. What I need is some real-case examples. For example: - Example of Radius client that asks for service-type outbound, and what kind of devices it wants to be granted access. - Similarly, example of Radius client that asks for service-type administrative, NAS Prompt, Callback NAS Prompt, Call Check, and maybe some scenarios in which they are used ? >> 2. What attributes are usually returned in the >> access-accept packet for the above service type ? > It depends on your local configuration. I understand that it depends of my own configuration. But I'm interested to know about the common practice out there. Would you care to elaborate more ? I'm still new to the Radius concept. >> For Service-type PPP / SLIP requested, is there any >> MANDATORY attributes that need to be returned by the >> radius server in the access-accept packet >> (Framed-IP-Address, Framed-MTU, etc) ? > See the RFC's, and your NAS vendor documentation. Can you please provide me with some links to any NAS vendor documentation ?

It depends on the NAS. > Alan DeKok. ===== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ La vie, voyez-vous, ca n'est jamais si bon ni si mauvais qu'on croit - Guy de Maupassant - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
