Supported RADIUS Attributes
The 802.1X Authenticator relies on external RADIUS servers for authentication with EAP. Table 9
lists the RADIUS attributes that are supported as part of RADIUS-EAP authentication based on the
guidelines specified in Annex D of the 802.1X standard and RFC 3580.
Table 9 Support for RADIUS Attributes
# Attribute Attribute Value A-R A-A A-C A-R
1 User-Name The value of the Type-Data field from the
supplicant’s EAP-Response/Identity message.
If the Identity is unknown (i.e. Type-Data field
is zero bytes in length), this attribute will have
the same value as the Calling-Station-Id.
10-10 0
4 NAS-IP-Address IP address of the authenticator used for Radius
communication.
1000
5 NAS-Port Port number of the authenticator port to which
the supplicant is attached.
1000
24 State Server-specific value. This is sent unmodified
back to the server in an Access-Request that is
in response to an Access-Challenge.
0-1 0-1 0-1 0
30 Called-Station-ID The MAC address of the authenticator encoded
as an ASCII string in canonical format, e.g.
000D5622E3 9F.
1000
31 Calling-Station-ID The MAC address of the supplicant encoded as
an ASCII string in canonical format, e.g.
00034B436206.

to the authentication server (Radius) and
vice-versa. The authenticator relays the decoded
packet to both devices.
