The applicant's supporting document is attached. Thanks, Amanda Baber IANA === Hi Amanda, Thank you for your quick response. Please assign the next available number. Attached our contribution to the IEEE 802.16p standard, which explains the overall requirements and flows for power outage requirement that includes the AAA extension for Acct-Terminate-Cause. Please let me know if you need any additional details.

Please see http://www.iana.org/assignments/radius-types/radius-types.xhtml Per RFC 3575 (which updates RFC 2865), registration requests must be approved by an IESG-designated expert. Do you have a specification or any other kind of supporting documentation we can send to the expert for review?
