[RADIATOR] NAS-Identifier definition in the radiator data dictionary

[Bengi Sağlam]

Hi all,

I have a problem with the "NAS-Identifier" attribute. In the current
configuration of the radiator for the NAS-Identifier, we use the client MAC
value which is the identity of the router.

NAS-Identifier = "00-0C-42-FA-53-30"


The problem comes out when I want to change the identity of the router to
something shorter or longer such as *"BBVA39XZ"*.  In this case I am not
receiving "Accounting-On" packet and I receive message on the log as* "NOTICE:
Request from unknown client 217.124.187.43 <http://217.124.187.43>:
ignored".*

I realised that when I change the router identity as "000C42FA5330" or
"ABDFDCBFFDAC" I receive "Accounting-On" packet successfully.

*Packet length = 52*
*04 03 00 34 6f 88 bc 04 53 7b a6 53 76 eb f7 9e*
*90 2d d3 99 28 06 00 00 00 07 20 0e 41 42 44 46*
*44 43 42 46 46 44 41 43 29 06 00 00 00 00 04 06*
*d9 7c bb 2b*
*Code:       Accounting-Request*
*Identifier: 3*
*Authentic:  o<136><188><4>S{<166>Sv<235><247><158><144>-<211><153>*
*Attributes:*
* Acct-Status-Type = Accounting-On*
* NAS-Identifier = "ABDFDCBFFDAC"*
* Acct-Delay-Time = 0*
* NAS-IP-Address = 217.124.187.43*
* Called-Station-Id = "ABDFDCBFFDAC"*


Seems like only the characters defined in hexadecimal are accepted by the
radiator data dictionary. After realising this, I checked my data
dictionary and I have the following definition:

*ATTRIBUTE       NAS-Identifier                  32      string*

Could you please tell me, which type I should put it in order to achieve
what I want, or is there any way without changing the data dictionary?
