What does that mean? The attributes in the packet do NOT have a data
type. They're just binary blobs. The RFCs say that Class is a binary
blob, too.

If you're sending accounting packets to your DPI box, then you need to
fix your DPI box to treat Class as text. No amount of poking FreeRADIUS
will change the way your DPI box works.
Perhaps you could explain what you *think* is going on. Right now, it
looks like you're operating under false assumptions. Therefore, your
questions are wrong.
