Hi Luciano, Many thanks for the reply. Yes, it was a client-side error (now fixed, see below). I removed the empty lines between VENDOR and the first attributes and that didn't make any difference. The Cisco attributes were added by me creating a dictionary.cisco file which I then included in the main dictionary with the $INCLUDE directive. As for testing, I was just using the radiusclient-ng at command line and manually trying to enter an AUTH packet with the Cisco attributes. But it's now working fine. If anyone else stumbles upon this thread after having problems with using a RADIUS based SIPPY B2BUA with FreeRadius, the fix is:- 1. After installing the radiusclient-ng client application, edit the radiusclient-ng.conf file and tell it to use the SIPPY dictionary (which is probably in /usr/src/sippy/). Don't use the radiusclient-ng library (that's why mine wasn't working at first). 2. Edit the SIPPY dictionary file and add the following entries, or alternatively put these in to a new file and include them in the main dictionary with the $INCLUDE directive:- VENDOR Cisco 9 ATTRIBUTE Cisco-AVPair 1 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-remote-address 23 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-conf-id 24 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-setup-time 25 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-call-origin 26 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-call-type 27 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-connect-time 28 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-disconnect-time 29 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-disconnect-cause 30 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-voice-quality 31 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-ivr-out 32 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-credit-time 102 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-return-code 103 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-redirect-number 106 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-preferred-lang 107 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-billing-model 109 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-currency 110 string Cisco Dean On 6 Jan 2009, at 13:17, Luciano Afranllie wrote:
Dean,
Do you see that error on client side, right?
Some very stupid thing I can tell you is remove the empty line between VENDOR line and first attribute. I have the same config (without the empty line) and is working fine.
How and where do you added cisco attributes? Just a tip, you can create a new dictionary file (dictionary.cisco for example) and use an include directive at the end of the default dictionary file of radiusclient-ng
$INCLUDE dictionary.cisco
How are you testing this attribute?
Regards Luciano

Hi there,
I'm having real trouble getting FreeRadius and radiusclient-ng to talk to each other with Cisco h323 attributes.
I believe I have set up FreeRadius correctly. I can connect using radiusclient-ng and do standard AUTH commands and all works fine.
As soon as I try to add an attribute like:-
h323-conf-id = '78FF6EBC 2F74D29E 4F400B22 8B4AA1C1'
I get this parse error from radiusclient-ng:-
: can't parse AV pair
I assumed that this meant that radiusclient-ng didn't recognise the h323-conf-id attribute, so I included in the radiusclient-ng *client* dictionary the following:-
VENDOR Cisco 9
ATTRIBUTE Cisco-AVPair 1 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-call-origin 26 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-remote-address 23 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-conf-id 24 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-setup-time 25 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-call-origin 26 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-call-type 27 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-connect-time 28 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-disconnect-time 29 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-disconnect-cause 30 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-voice-quality 31 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-gw-id 33 string Cisco ATTRIBUTE h323-incoming-conf-id 35 string Cisco
The client appears to be happy with this dictionary file (at least the client runs and still does standard AUTH's ok), but I still get the parse error on the h323 vars.
The fact that the parse error states an error parsing "AV pair" makes me think that these attributes need to be formatted in a particular way. Could that be it?
Any assistance or pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated....
Thanks,
Dean
