[RADIATOR] Radiator Version 4.13 released

Hi,
the following new feature seems to not work as I'd expect it:
PEAP and EAP-TTLS now make maximum fragment size available for inner
authentication protocols. EAP-TLS was improved to use this information.
This allows PEAP/EAP-TLS and EAP-TTLS/EAP-TLS to work better with
environments with variable Framed-MTU sizes.

I've configured the outer PEAP Handler with EAPTLS_MaxFragmentSize 1350
and removed the value 1250 (1300 which we use for wired dot1x seems to
be too large) from the inner TLS handler which makes it fail the same
way as when configuring 1300.
Is the other value too large or how is the inner size calculated?

Thanks, Alex
