Ok I got it… By the way what is AV pair? And how do you get NAS related attributes to control bandwidth from vendors? Like if im using D-Link how could I get attributes from them?   Thanks!   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeff Reilly Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2005 11:53 AM To: FreeRadius users mailing list Subject: RE: 802.1x   Alex, Features such as 'bandwidth and port blocking" (if any) are allocated/configured on the _NAS_ (in this case a NAS port) via AV pair/s provided by RADIUS... the '802.1x Supplicant" (Client/Endpoint) in simple terms... provides a secure/standard conduit which facilitates the communication of credentials (from the Supplicant to the Authenticator).  The '802.1x Authenticator" (or NAS) _MAY_ provision/enforce Authorization for the specific endpoint in the context of a user or group...    The management & granularity of this functionality verifies greatly by switch vendor as a result providing this functionality across a multi-vendor environment... in a large scale deployment... is often too complex to seriously consider.<?   jmr -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RE: 802.1x From: "Alex M" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, November 02, 2005 9:10 am To: "'FreeRadius users mailing list'" <freeradius-users@lists.freeradius.org> Now im totally lost...
