Can you point to a specification saying how this hashing works?

A---------->B(nsis server)--------->C(radius server)

User A generates a large buffer which contains various Authentication
Attributes, A hash of this string is generated using MD5 algorithm with a
key known to both users A and C, This string is appended to the original
string and sent over the network, Node B get this string and it extract
various session attributes from this string.

The attributes extracted should be used to construct the diameter message
using freeradius client library.

Can you point to a specification saying how this hashing works?

Is there a way to do this i.e. how to generate a AAA message with the
information available i.e. a string, its keyed hash and User A's id ?
Assuming that the Radius server has keys of all legitimate users.

Yes.
