Custom attributes also appear in the attribute list if they are defined as custom tags for the local user.
These attributes can be used only if you have pre-populated the values for these attributes when a local user is
configured in Policy Manager.
Posture Namespaces
The dictionaries in the posture namespace are pre-packaged with the product. The administration interface
provides a way to add dictionaries into the system (see Posture Dictionary.) Posture namespace has the
notation Vendor:Application, where Vendor is the name of the Company that has defined attributes in the
dictionary, and Application is the name of the application for which the attributes have been defined. The same
vendor typically has different dictionaries for different applications.
Some examples of dictionaries in the posture namespace are:
l W-ClearPass:LinuxSHV
l Microsoft:SystemSHV
l Microsoft:WindowsSHV
l Trend:AV

RADIUS Namespaces
Dictionaries in the RADIUS namespace come pre-packaged with the product. The administration interface does
provide a way to add dictionaries into the system (See RADIUS Dictionary on page 637 for more information).
RADIUS namespace has the notation RADIUS:Vendor, where Vendor is the name of the Company that has
defined attributes in the dictionary. Sometimes, the same vendor has multiple dictionaries, in which case the
"Vendor" portion has the name suffixed by the name of device or some other unique string.
IETF is a special vendor for the dictionary that holds the attributes defined in the RFC 2865 and other
associated RFCs. Policy Manager comes pre-packaged with a number of vendor dictionaries.
Some examples of dictionaries in the RADIUS namespace are:
l RADIUS:Aruba
l RADIUS:IETF
l RADIUS:Juniper
l RADIUS:Microsoft
