Re: Multiple Services - Single Login

I am curious to understand the best means of providing multiple service authentications, such as PPPoE, Dialup, VPN, etc, via one login and password. I have seen it done before by NAS-IP-Address but it would quite cumbersome in our network. I was fooling around with the "NAS-Port-Type" but am having mixed results. Is there a better way to determine the type of service?

The NAS *should* put something useful into the packet. If it doesn't, you're left with looking at the *entire* packet, and trying to figure out which packets are for which service. Usually a combination of NAS IP address, NAS port, and Service-Type should do the trick. Alan DeKok.
