About Radius Attributes
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 ?

Re: About Radius Attributes
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.
