I am under the impression that RADIUS client (radclient) is itself is doing the UTF-8 conversion as per RFC 2865 while sending multilingual username attribute if it is not in UTF-8 form.
So I think this is not at all a meaning less. correct me if i am wrong.
Your question is meaningless and inappropriate for this forum. If you're writing your own RADIUS client, then pretending to ask questions about radclient is not nice. If you want to know how radclient handles UTF-8, go read the source code. It's publicly available.
Does it send the same multilingual charcters to the RADIUS server or first of all convert that into UTF-8 as per RFC 2865 and send it to RADIUS server in ACCESS REQUEST packet as attribute or just send as it is to RADIUS server?
This question was already answered on the list, in a message describing how a RADIUS client works. If you're not going to read the messages on this list, there's no point in asking questions here. Alan DeKok.
