My condolences.
and for some reason they decided when converting a DHCPv6 packet into a radius packet it appends the Enterprise ID (which is a hex number) into the ADSL-Agent-Remote-ID.
*sigh*
Just for the record: The enterprise ID is a required part of the DHCPv6 Relay Agent Remote-ID, so I don't think you should shoot Alcatel for implementing it like that... See RFC 4649. One could of course question whether an access server translating DHCPv6 requests to RADIUS requests should do some remapping of the attribute, but there is no such requirement in RFC 4679 (which describes the ADSL-Agent-Remote-ID and the other DSL Forum attributes). But with the power of FR unlang I prefer the access servers to do as little preprocessing as possible. Getting the raw values is much much better than having each access server vendor implement their own buggy idea of how some attribute should be formatted. Bjørn
