(RADIATOR) Help with Vendor Specific Attributes

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Rich -

The first thing to do is check with RedBack to find out whether or not they 
even support this, and if so what the correct radius attribute is. The next 
thing to do is check with the telco to see whether or not they will allow you 
to send that attribute to their equipment.

BTW - the file "dictionary.redback" in the Radiator 3.0 distribution includes 
these Redback vendor specifics.

VENDORATTR   2352       RB-Client-DNS-Pri              1  ipaddr
VENDORATTR   2352       RB-Client-DNS-Sec            2  ipaddr

Note that you should start with the standard Radiator dictionary and add or 
delete entries as required.

regards

Hugh
