RFC3580 Clarification / Tunnel-Medium-Type / Clarification



Hi,

Could someone please clarify the value being sent back through the Tunnel-Medium-Type RADIUS attribute?

RFC3580 states as follow:

Tunnel-Type=VLAN (13)
Tunnel-Medium-Type=802
Tunnel-Private-Group-ID=VLANID

So it seems that the integer value is 802, but in other places the 6 value is listed, so it appears that "(6)" has been left out and that it should be "Tunnel-Medium-Type=802 (6)".

From a RADIUS client (switch here) perspective, should we support both 802 and 6 integer values? Probably yes.

It appears that some RADIUS servers are sending back 802 while others are sending back 6. Does anyone have a list of which RADIUS server is sending which value?


Thanks.

JEFF
