  *Which* WiMAX specification?

  The geniuses involved in WiMAX *changed* the definition of multiple
attributes when they updated the specifications.

  We're compatible with the specification we quote at the top of
dictionary.wimax.

  The dictionaries are text for a reason: you can edit them.

  WiMAX is completely wrong.  The specs are ridiculously complicated.

Query regarding update reason

2010-05-13 Thread Vijay Badola
Hi, 

I have a query regarding Update-Reason field in PPAQ attribute of
Access-Request for prepaid case. 

According to WiMax specification the size of this AVP is 4 byte(including
tag and length).

And according to dictionary.wimax supplied by freeradius size of
Update-Reason field is 4 byte means total size of AVP is 6 byte.

 

Can we change the size of Update-Reason field to 2 byte in dictionary.wimax
to make over all AVP size 4 byte, to decode this AVP at server properly
(when incoming Access-Request has 4 byte for update-reason AVP)? Or What is
other way to achieve it? 

Please correct me if my understading is wrong?
