Hi,

RFC 2865:

5.25.  Class

  Description

     This Attribute is available to be sent by the server to the client
     in an Access-Accept and SHOULD be sent unmodified by the client to
     the accounting server as part of the Accounting-Request packet if
     accounting is supported.  The client MUST NOT interpret the
     attribute locally.

  A summary of the Class Attribute format is shown below.  The fields
  are transmitted from left to right.

   0                   1                   2
   0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
  +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-
  |     Type      |    Length     |  String ...
  +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-

  Type

     25 for Class.

  Length

     >= 3

  String

     The String field is one or more octets.  The actual format of the
     information is site or application specific, and a robust
     implementation SHOULD support the field as undistinguished octets.

     The codification of the range of allowed usage of this field is
     outside the scope of this specification.

Was there an RFC that went on to define the proper usage of the Class attribute, or is it's usage still ambiguous ? I know some people use it to link accounting data to an authentication attempt....

Thanks,
Arran
