Transferred attributes

As previously mentioned, your device transmits far more than just the username and password in a RADIUS request. RADIUS servers might choose to completely ignore these additional attributes, or only use a subset of these attributes. Many of these attributes are used for access to the server using dial-in, and are defined as standard attributes in the RADIUS RFCs. However, some important information for hotspot operation can not be represented with standard attributes. These additional attributes are manufacturer-specific with the manufacturer code 2356 (LANCOM Systems GmbH).

Table 1. Overview of the RADIUS attributes transmitted by the device to the authentication server
ID : Name Meaning Possible values in LCOS
1 User name The name entered by the user.  
2 User-Password The password entered by the user.  
4 NAS-IP-Address IP address of your device <IPv4 address of the device>
6 Service-Type Type of service that the user requested. The value "1" stands for Login.  
8 Framed-IP-Address Specifies the IP address that is assigned to the client. <IP address of the client>
30 Called-Station-Id MAC address of your device <nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn>
31 Calling-Station-Id MAC address of the client The address is given byte-wise in hexadecimal notation with separators. <nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn>
32 NAS identifier Name of your device, if configured. <Device-Name>
61 NAS-Port-Type Type of physical port over which a user had requested authentication.
  • ID 19 denotes clients from WLAN.
  • ID 15 denotes clients from Ethernet.
87 NAS-Port-Id Description of the interface over which the client is connected to your device. This may be a physical and a logical interface.
Note: Consider that more than one client may be connected to one interface at a time, so that, unlike dial-in servers, port numbers are not unique for clients.
For example
  • LAN-1
  • WLAN-1-5
  • WLC-TUNNEL-27
