Description VLAN-Name 26, 43, 2 Yes No Yes Name of the VLAN to which the client belongs. there are more (8) VSAs starting from 26, 43, 2 to 26, 43, 8 how to incorporate all this information in freeradius directory (configuration)? I don't understand what "26, 43, 2" mean. best regards, MU
how to incorporate all this information in freeradius directory (configuration)?
Have a look at the dictionary.3com in freeradius distribution. If they are not there, ask 3com for an updated dictionary file and post it here. If it's OK it will be included in the distribution and you can replace dictionary.3com in your installation.
I don't understand what "26, 43, 2" mean.
26 means VSA attribute, 43 means that vendor is 3Com and 2 is the id of that attribute so 3Com device can know what attribute it is (name VLAN-Name or more likely 3Com-VLAN-Name, is for humans). Ivan Kalik Kalik Informatika ISP

Have a look at the dictionary.3com in freeradius distribution. If they are not there, in fact they're not there, this dictionary contains some other attributes only.
ask 3com for an updated dictionary file and post it here.
3com wrote in the newest WX switch software release notes: "future versions of ... FreeRadius are planned to include standard definitions of the 3Com VSAs.". I was quite surprised I've not found these in freeradius 2 distribution :-) . I'll ask them but...
If it's OK it will be included in the distribution and you can replace dictionary.3com in your installation.
... but in the meantime I'll try to prepare my own dictionary entries.
26 means VSA attribute, 43 means that vendor is 3Com and 2 is the id of that attribute so 3Com device can know what attribute it is (name VLAN-Name or more likely 3Com-VLAN-Name, is for humans)
thank you very much for your prompt information best regards, MU

The last update we saw to the 3com dictionaries was in July. It's nice to be mentioned, but 3com *can* email any new dictionaries to us. That way the dictionary updates will happen much more quickly. Alan DeKok.
