(RADIATOR) Tunnel-Password

Hello,

We've been working on setting up a way to create a l2 tunnel between our
NAS and an l2tpd endpoint through Radius. This works fine using our own
max tnt. However, now we need to get it working through Ikano / Level 3.
The problem I'm running into is that the Ikano radius servers which also
run Radiator, are getting the Tunnel-Password encrypted. Level 3 needs it
in clear text so that it can authenticate correctly against our endpoint.

Here is a trace 4 log that I got from Ikano when we were testing this.. I
pulled the IP's out of the trace for security reasons

*** This is what we are sending to L3. Could the problem be with tagged

	Ascend-Data-Filter = ip in forward

	Idle-Timeout = 1200


Is there a way to send the tunnel password in clear text instead of
encrypted? I think it needs to be this way in order for my tunneling
endpoint to allow the NAS to create a tunnel to it.

Thank you,

Jeroen
