Appendix B - Supported Radius Attribites; Supported Standard And Extended Attributes - D-Link DWS-1008 User Manual

DWS-1008 User's Manual
D-Link's Mobility System Software (MSS) supports the standard and extended RADIUS
authentication and accounting attributes listed at the bottom.
An attribute is sent to RADIUS accounting only if the table listing it shows Yes or Optional in
the column marked Sent in Accounting-Request for the attribute and the attribute is applied
to the client's session configuration. Attribute values have the following characteristics unless
otherwise stated:
• Strings can contain a maximum of 253 characters.
• Integers are 4 bytes.
• IP addresses are 4 bytes.
The RADIUS attributes MSS supports are based on these IETF RFCs and drafts:
• RFC 2865, Remote Authentication Dial-in User Service (RADIUS)
• RFC 2866, RADIUS Accounting
• RFC 2868, RADIUS Attributes for Tunnel Protocol Support
• RFC 2869, RADIUS Extensions
• draft-congdon-radius-8021x-29.txt (IEEE 802.1X RADIUS Usage Guidelines)
