Hi Alan, Do you know of a syntax on Radclient for defining the "Message-Authenticator attribute"? I'll see if I can find it in the accounting record, get it working and then follow-up as to why the it's not as per RFC.

I think the bottom line is I need to do some more investigation. I tried a PPP vs. MLPPP session and my COAs work as expected. I'll see if I can gather data from the Accounting-Request like you mention. I'll see if I can find the " Message-Authenticator attribute" I'm not sure why the NAS is making this mandatory, I'll have to investigate. This is very helpful since as I can clearly see I'm not an expert in this area.

I *think* the correct response is to say "read the NAS documentation". If the NAS accepts CoA packets, the documentation *should* say what it needs in the CoA to disconnect a session. Failing that, look at the Accounting-Request packets for the session. Take that data (other than the various counters), put it into a CoA packet, and hope for the best. > RADIUS: COA received from id 48 x.x.x.99:1052, CoA Request, len 149 > COA: x.x.x.20 request queued ... > COA: Message Authenticator missing or failed decode That message seems clear. Add the Message-Authenticator attribute to the CoA packet. And *why* does the NAS require this? RFC5176 does *not* require a Message-Authenticator to be in a CoA packet.
