I have a Radius client (not generic but proprietary) that encodes its vendor-type on *2* octets while the "normal and common" way is to encode the vendor-type on 1 octet (0-255).

Yeah, some vendors do that.

- Is there an RFC that actually defines for good the length of the vendor-type? (I did not manage to find that piece of information)

No.

- can Freeradius encode a vendor-type on 2 octets for 1 specific vendor while replying to the client?

In 1.0.5, no. In the CVS head, yes.

- if so (I doubt...), how? (configuration? Special dictionary format?)

Code modifications. Alan DeKok.
