[RADIATOR] Why does this attribute fail?

Hello,

Thanks for reporting this.
It appears to be due to incorrect assembly of the transmitted packet sent by 
your NAS.

The ADSL-Forum VSA, which contains the DSLForum-* attributes, has a single 
extra octet with value 0x02 at the end, after 
theDSLForum-Access-Loop-Encapsulation attribute .

This is being seen by Radiator during unpacking as bad formatting, and the 
rest of the packet (which contains NAS-IP-Address) is not unpacked.

You should refer this to your NAS vendor.

Cheers.
