RE: Radius Attributes
Probably not. At any rate, it would be mostly a function of your NAS. The protocol and FR could probably handle it. But your NAS is going to have to accept it during the authentication and store it for the duration of the user session. You would need to check the attributes and functionality of your NAS to see if such a thing is feasible. If you are using a SQL database, it should not be to difficult to add the field to the accounting table and run a query after the accounting record is inserted to add the field value to the record.

Thx Numbers in the database are easier to understand for some programs which do whimsical operations and finally present data in a graphical way.

The numbers assigned to Acct-Status-Type values are meaningless. You can't graph them, as they have no relationship to each other. I still don't understand why it's an issue.

For me it looks that instead of inserting into database numeric value of attribute Acct-Status-Type, FreeRadius tries to insert mnemonic of that attribute (i.e. text 'Start'). Yes. What's wrong with that? The default schema does NOT include a row for Acct-Status-Type. So if you're using it, then you've changed the schema and the SQL queries. The Acct-Status-Type attribute is an 'integer' type, but it's easier for people to use names, so the integers have names. See the dictionary files for details.
