
Vendor-specific RADIUS attributes: RADIUS attributes that are specific to the
device (company) are referred to as Vendor-specific attributes (VSA). The CDR of
VSAs are sent with a general RADIUS ID of 26 to indicate that they are vendor-
specific (non-standard). In addition, the company's registered vendor ID (as registered
with the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority or IANA) is also included in the packet.
The device's default vendor ID is 5003, which can be changed (see ''Configuring the
RADIUS Vendor ID'' on page 225). The VSA ID is also included in the packet.
The following figure shows a vendor-specific RADIUS attribute collected by Wireshark.
The bottom pane shows the RADIUS attribute information as sent in the packet; the
upper pane is Wireshark's interpretation of the RADIUS information in a more
readable format. The example shows the attribute in string-of-characters format.
