  I would think it's obvious what they mean.  The RFC's also describe
what they mean, so I'm not sure what else you're looking for.

 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.

  Buy the RADIUS book.

 Can you please provide me with some links to any NAS
 vendor documentation ? I don't have any specific NAS
 in mind currently.

  Then your questions about NAS behavior are pretty much irrelevant.
If you're trying to understand how RADIUS works, buy the book.

About Radius Attributes

2004-05-17 Thread Lara Adianto
Hello,

I need some information about the following
'service-type' attribute:
- Outbound
- Administrative
- NAS Prompt
- Call Check
- Callback NAS Prompt

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 ? 
2. What attributes are usually returned in the
access-accept packet for the above service type ?

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) ? If the
Framed-IP-Address is not a mandatory attribute to be
returned for service-type PPP, how will the NAS decide
the IP Address assigned to the user ?

Thank you for any replies,
lara

  Click on Service-Type, and it will tell you what those values
mean, and when they're used.

  It depends on your local configuration.

  See the RFC's, and your NAS vendor documentation.

  See the NAS documentation.  It depends on the NAS.

Hi Alan,

  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 ?
