RE: Diameter compatibility of VLAN-00



I guess I am just observing that this is an opportunity
to set a precedent.  I do not feel strongly about this
issue for this particular draft, but in general, how do
we comply with this part of the charter:
  "RADEXT WG work items MUST contain a Diameter 
   compatibility section, outlining how
   interoperability with Diameter will be 
   maintained."
Saying, essentially, this RADIUS attribute can be used
with so-and-so application may not be a clear specification
given some of the complicated Diameter applications that
may occur.  I don't think a Diameter AVP table is out of
the question- do you?
