I realized that this host doesn't responds the accounting request with the Proxy-State (AVP 33). I checked the RFC2865 and it seems that it is mandatory the remote server responds the accounting response with the Proxy-State (AVP 33).
While the attribute is mandatory, FreeRADIUS doesn't use it for anything.
My questions are:
1) Is FreeRADIUS really correlating the accounting requests/response correctly for this remote host that doesn't add the AVP 33 in the response for a proxied request?
Yes.
2) What is the expected behavior of the FreeRADIUS and effects in the described situation (proxied requests being responded with no Proxy-State attribute).
It will work. FreeRADIUS will work if it (a) proxies a request containing Proxy-State (b) receives a valid response (src/dst ip/port, etc.) with no Proxy-State. In your case, the home server is being marked dead because it isn't responding. Nothing else will cause it to me marked dead. Alan DeKok.
