Hello,
First of all, sorry if this question has been posted numerous times, but
after seeking the answer on the mailinglist archive for a few hours & hard
research in the books, i found the time was right for a posting.
Radiator has a nifty feature which makes IP Pool management a lot easier,
at least: it should.
The FramedGroupBaseAddress system would allow a per client configuration
of
an IP pool, and that's what we did:
<Client 192.168.11.12>
Secret test123
FramedGroupBaseAddress 194.171.0.33
FramedGroupMaxPortsPerClassC 29
</Client>
Our Ascend in this example has one primary rate line connected to it, thus
around 29 IPs should be sufficient.
The actual IP address given to the NAS from Radiator is based on the base
address to which it adds the NAS-Port.
This is where the problems arise.
Calls on the Ascend Max 4000 are defined in a somewhat different
way then we would want: it adds info on what type of call it is _in_ the
NAS-Port reply item
(done with radpwtst, NAS-Port settings are however exactly as the Ascend
gives them)
*** Received from 127.0.0.1 port 1049 ....
Code: Access-Request
Identifier: 69
Authentic: 1234567890123456
Attributes:
User-Name = "blaat3"
Service-Type = Framed-User
NAS-Identifier = 203.63.154.1
NAS-Port = 20102
NAS-Port-Type = Async
User-Password =
"<18>EO<212>mR`<138>*<130><222><217><237>P<212><245>"
And the Access-Accept:
Code: Access-Accept
Identifier: 69
Authentic: 1234567890123456
Attributes:
Framed-Protocol = ppp
Framed-Address = 194.171.693.38
Reply-Message = "Welkom bij / Welcome to TH Rijswijk"
The answer is not something an Ascend understands, let alone any other IP
device. (eventhough a lot of people would be happy if ...)
If Nas-Port is indeed something which would be expected (and integer with
just which port is in use) then all goes well. eg.: the base address +
nas-port = framed IP address.
The general question in this is:
a) Am i overseeing an option in the Max 4K software which can
disable this 'add-extra-info to NAS-Port', if so: which one ?
b) How did other people fix this problem.
Hacking into the Radiator software which does a NAS-Port-=20099 is just
not something i'd like to do.
Thanks in advance, and again my appologies if this is already mentioned
somewhere else.
Greets,
