Hi Nitin, Question on your planned contribution to FreeRADIUS: Does your module support the key generation algorithms for the WiMAX mobility keys? Specifically, is your module able to correctly generate the MN-HA-MIP4-KEY and related key material from the EMSK derived as part of the EAP exchange? Personally this was seen as the biggest challenge towards building NWG compliance into FreeRADIUS as opposed to VSA format. Thanks, Walter On 7/18/07, Nitin Naveen <Nitin.Naveen@hsc.com> wrote:

Hello All,

Hi I am Nitin Naveen working with HUGHES SYSTIQUE. We have been working to enhance freeradius to support WiMAX VSA (as per WiMAX NWG forum). WiMAX VSA are not the typical type-length-value rather they have type-length-controlinfo-value. We have enhanced the dictionary but we were not able to generate the attributes as per the WiMAX NWG format. For now we have developed our own rlm_hsc_wimax module. We like to contribute to freeradius so that the WiMAX VSA are supported as part of the standard distribution. To this end we can share our code. But before that we would like to follow the correct procedure for releasing the code. Your inputs and suggestion are awaited.

Yes..

Submit a feature request on bugs.freeradius.org. Add the patch as an attachment. Make sure that the code has the GPL license in it. The FreeRADIUS code currently does this. Copyright can remain with you. Alan DeKok.
