OK. This _looks_ like a RADIUS accounting packet, and the patch doesn't look horrible, but with the exception of the following in RFC 2866 I can't find anything mentioning "Acct-Status-Type = Failed" as being valid: 5.1. Acct-Status-Type Description This attribute indicates whether this Accounting-Request marks the beginning of the user service (Start) or the end (Stop). It MAY be used by the client to mark the start of accounting (for example, upon booting) by specifying Accounting-On and to mark the end of accounting (for example, just before a scheduled reboot) by specifying Accounting-Off. --snip-- The Value field is four octets. 1 Start 2 Stop 3 Interim-Update 7 Accounting-On 8 Accounting-Off 9-14 Reserved for Tunnel Accounting 15 Reserved for Failed <------------------*************** Based on which RFC does SER generate RADIUS accounting packets with "Acct-Status-Type = Failed"? I am CCing this mail to the FreeRADIUS devel list also. (I suggest that those of you on the SER list interested in this patch should join freeradius-devel also) Proposed patch to enable Acct-Status-Type = Failed support in FreeRADIUS at: http://download.dns-hosting.info/CDRTool/freeradius/freeradius-cvs-failed-ac...

We use this for logging of Radius packets type Failed, which are generated by negative codes in OpenSER.

For example this Radius packet will not end up in sql without the patch applied:

Hi!

Maybe someone can explain shortly what this feature is and where it is needed? I'm using radius accounting but never had any issues (maybe because I'm using radiator).

Hello Peter,

Thank you for helping us with including the OpenSER radius attributes in the mainstream Freeradius dictionary,

Can you help the OpenSER community to have the failed query accepted by the Freeradius? We currently keep patches for Freeradius with this functionality and all who could help so far seem to be more interested in seeing some RFCs about the problem instead of fixing the code.

Can you help?

Hi Adrian

I haven't seen the patch myself, so if you can send it to me with a description of what it is supposed to accomplish I will take a look at it.
