Normally in a mobile services there's no specification into the header about connection type. many sniffing were done but only specific equipment allows to enrich the header with this inofrmation, for example some particular charging proxy. We need to have this information cause from server side could be interesting to give to the user different services according to the user connections. now i asked, if freeradius can help us in this. regards Mauro ----- Messaggio originale ----- Da: Guy Davies <aguydavies@gmail.com> A: FreeRadius users mailing list <freeradius-users@lists.freeradius.org> Inviato: Mercoledì 27 febbraio 2008, 12:01:21 Oggetto: Re: header enrichment On 27/02/2008, Alan DeKok <aland@deployingradius.com> wrote:

Hi all i would like to know if freeradius can help to enrich the user header for that mobile services that needs some particular params as for connection type ( 3g, gprs...).
What does that mean?
I'm not a 3g expert. Maybe the 3g equipment you're using can use RADIUS attributes. If so, see it's documentation for what RADIUS attributes it uses.
Alan is right. I would imagine that you'd need to use the 3GPP or 3GPP2 RADIUS dictionary to respond with attributes that could be used by the client to perform the header enrichment. As long as the information can be presented as a regular RADIUS attribute or VSA, then you can use FreeRADIUS to provide that information to the client (the device performing the header enrichment function).

Which header? You are assuming that everyone here is familiar with 3g terminology. You were already told we were not.

Could you describe what you mean in more words? It is meaningless to say "enrich the header". We have no idea what you mean by that.

We know you asked this. We cannot help you if we have no idea what you're talking about. And we said we don't know much about 3g. Perhaps you could describe what you're talking about using more words. Simply repeating comments about "3g" and "header" and "connection type" is a waste of time. *Describe* what you're doing, using words OTHER than "enrich the header". If you can't, then I suspect that any answer we give will be incomprehensible. Alan DeKok.
