Vendor-Specific Attributes for RADIUS
The Alcatel-Lucent RADIUS client supports attribute 26, which includes a vendor ID and some addi-
tional sub-attributes called subtypes. The vendor ID and the subtypes collectively are called Vendor
Specific Attributes (VSAs). Alcatel-Lucent, through partnering arrangements, has included these VSAs in
some vendors' RADIUS server configurations.
The attribute subtypes are defined in the dictionary file of the server. If you are using single authority
mode, the first VSA subtype, Alcatel-Lucent-Auth-Vlan, must be defined on the server for each authenti-
cated VLAN. Alcatel-Lucent's vendor ID is 800 (SMI Network Management Private Enterprise Code).
The following are VSAs for RADIUS servers:
Num. RADIUS VSA
1 Alcatel-Lucent-Auth-Group
2 Alcatel-Lucent-Slot-Port
3 Alcatel-Lucent-Time-of-Day
4 Alcatel-Lucent-Client-IP-
Addr
5 Alcatel-Lucent-Group-Desc
6 Alcatel-Lucent-Port-Desc
8 Alcatel-Lucent-Auth-Group-
Protocol
9 Alcatel-Lucent-Asa-Access
39 Alcatel-Lucent-Acce-Priv-F-

40 Alcatel-Lucent-Acce-Priv-F-
R2
41 Alcatel-Lucent-Acce-Priv-F-
W1
42 Alcatel-Lucent-Acce-Priv-F-
W2
The Alcatel-Lucent-Auth-Group attribute is used for Ethernet II only. If a different protocol, or more than
one protocol is required, use the Alcatel-Lucent-Auth-Group-Protocol attribute instead. For example:
Alcatel-Lucent-Auth-Group-Protocol 23: IP_E2 IP_SNAP
Alcatel-Lucent-Auth-Group-Protocol 24: IPX_E2
In this example, authenticated users on VLAN 23 can use Ethernet II or SNAP encapsulation.
Authenticated users on VLAN 24 can use IPX with Ethernet II.
