Extended RADIUS Attributes

The RADIUS protocol features excellent extensibility. Attribute 26 (Vender-Specific) defined by RFC

2865 allows a vender to define extended attributes to implement functions that the standard RADIUS

protocol does not provide.

A vendor can encapsulate multiple type-length-value (TLV) sub-attributes in RADIUS packets for

extension in applications. As shown in

Figure 1-5

, a sub-attribute that can be encapsulated in Attribute

26 consists of the following four parts:

z

Vendor-ID (four bytes): Indicates the ID of the vendor. Its most significant byte is 0 and the other

three bytes contain a code complying with RFC 1700. The vendor ID of H3C is 2011. For more

information about the proprietary RADIUS sub-attributes of H3C, see

Sub-Attributes of H3C

z

Vendor-Type: Indicates the type of the sub-attribute.

z

Vendor-Length: Indicates the length of the sub-attribute.

z

Vendor-Data: Indicates the contents of the sub-attribute.
