I have a support contract and have already tried to discuss this with Vircom. The company from which we "rent" xDSL ports send us packets with this NAS-Port-Type and we simply can't tell them from ISDN calls. I specifically asked for a way to simply put in the profiles.txt file a line for NAS-Port-Type instead of only "digital" or "analog" but Vircom didn't do it. They say they would look into it, but since it's been 2 years at least and a couple of minor releases, I would say they are looking somewhere else. Too bad. What we did was install a RADIUS server on a Linux box (very easy and doesn't ask too much from server in terms of RAM and CPU). Then we configured a xDSL profile that would only allow authentication from this server. What we needed was a way to tell from ISDN, analog and xDSL customers. Now ISDN are digital, analog are analog and xDSL are digital whose authentication packets com from the RADIUS on the Linux box. For your specific needs, although I have never tried, I think you could have FreeRADIUS (the server we are running) to rewrite to packet before sending to the proxy server (VPRRS). You could have it change the NAS-Port-Type from "virtual" to "async". -- Luiz Lima Image Link Internet http://www.imagelink.com.br ** To leave this list, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put the word "LEAVE" in the BODY of the email.
