Hi Alan,

Thank you for your quick response.

We have already checked the dictionary and found that wimax dictionary is
available in the freeradius server.

Actually we are using Freeradius server 2.1.9 and Alvarion base-station
and Alvarion ASN GW. Initially we created a service profile in Alvarion
ASN GW for the user "test" using their management software 'AlvariStar'.
And 'users' file in the freeradius has been updated to add the user "test"
as follows,

test Cleartext-Password := "test"
 	Auth-Type = Local,
	Service-Type = Framed-User,
	Framed-Protocol = PPP,
	Framed-IP-Address = 192.168.0.33,
	Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.0,
	Framed-Routing = Broadcast-Listen,
	Filter-Id = "servprof2"

where "servprof2" is the name of the service profile created in Alvarion
ASN GW. In this case the authentication was successful and MS has got the
IP as well.

Then we tried to create the service profile for the user "test" from the
Freeradius by using WiMAX attributes found in the file
dictionary.wimax'.The entries for the user in the 'users' file is as shown
below.

test Cleartext-Password := "test"
 	Auth-Type = Local,
	Service-Type = Framed-User,
	Framed-Protocol = PPP,
	Framed-IP-Address = 192.168.0.33,
	Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.0,
	WiMAX-Service-Profile-Id=1,
	WiMAX-Media-Flow-Type=Streaming-Video,
	WiMAX-Schedule-Type = Best-Effort,
	WiMAX-QoS-Id=01,
	WiMAX-Media-Flow-Type=Robust-Browser,
	WiMAX-Traffic-Priority=0,
	WiMAX-Maximum-Sustained-Traffic-Rate=512000

In this case Freeradius has sent the Access-Accept, but the authentication
process is not successful and MS is showing an error message as "EAP
supplicant transferring error".

I hope you understand the problem

Regards,
Anup
