Column descriptions

The following tables describe the columns of the RADIUS attributes for the Attributes view and the RADIUS IU triggers for the IU Triggers view.

Attributes

Column	Description
ID	ID of the attribute Standard RADIUS attribute IDs are assigned by IANA. Vendor-Specific Attribute (VSA) and Extended-Vendor-Specific (EVS) attribute IDs are assigned by the specific vendor. The VSA IDs in the list are assigned by Nokia or a Standards Developing Organization (SDO) such as BBF and 3GPP. Note: Attribute IDs follow the dotted number notation that is specified in RFC 6929, (Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) Protocol Extensions). For example: 1 (User-Name): a standard attribute type 26.6527.11 (Alc-Subsc-ID-Str): a Nokia VSA with attribute type 26, Vendor-Id 6527, Vendor-Type 11 241.26.6527.77 (Alc-Max-Total-Volume): a Nokia EVS attribute with attribute type 241, EVS-Type 26, Vendor-Id 6527, Vendor-Type 77
Name	Name of the attribute
Description	Description of the attribute
Type	Type of the attribute value; for example, String, IPv4 address
Limits	Limits that apply to the attribute type; for example, 32 characters for a string Empty if there are no explicit type limits. Implicit limits are not listed; for example, a string has an implicit limit equal to the maximum attribute size If an attribute can be present more than once (0+), the maximum number of instances of the attribute can be defined here
Format	Format and example of the attribute value (if applicable); for example, description of the values in an enum, formatting rules for a string
Access Request	Presence of the attribute in the Access-Request message: 0: the attribute is not present in the message 0+: 0 or more instances of the attribute can be present in the message 0-1: 0 or 1 instance of the attribute can be present in the message 1: exactly 1 instance of the attribute is present in the message
Access Accept	Presence of the attribute in the Access-Accept message: 0: the attribute is not present in the message 0+: 0 or more instances of the attribute can be present in the message 0-1: 0 or 1 instance of the attribute can be present in the message 1: exactly 1 instance of the attribute is present in the message
Authentication include-attribute CLI	The CLI command to enable inclusion of the attribute in the RADIUS authentication request messages. Possible values are: a CLI command without the context, if the context is the configure mobile-gateway profile bng radius-authentication-profile include-attribute context a CLI command including the context, if the context is different from the configure mobile-gateway profile bng radius-authentication-profile include-attribute context empty (no value) if the attribute is never included in the RADIUS authentication request messages <unconditional> if the attribute, when it has a value, is always included in the RADIUS authentication request messages
Accounting Start	Presence of the attribute in the Accounting Start message: 0: the attribute is not present in the message 0+: 0 or more instances of the attribute can be present in the message 0-1: 0 or 1 instance of the attribute can be present in the message 1: exactly 1 instance of the attribute is present in the message
Accounting Stop	Presence of the attribute in the Accounting Stop message: 0: the attribute is not present in the message 0+: 0 or more instances of the attribute can be present in the message 0-1: 0 or 1 instance of the attribute can be present in the message 1: exactly 1 instance of the attribute is present in the message
Accounting Update	Presence of the attribute in the Accounting Interim Update message: 0: the attribute is not present in the message 0+: 0 or more instances of the attribute can be present in the message 0-1: 0 or 1 instance of the attribute can be present in the message 1: exactly 1 instance of the attribute is present in the message
Accounting include-attribute CLI	The CLI command to enable inclusion of the attribute in the RADIUS accounting messages. Possible values are: the CLI command in the configure mobile-gateway profile charging bng-charging radius session include-attribute context empty (no value) if the attribute is never included in the RADIUS accounting messages <unconditional> if the attribute, when it has a value, is always included in the RADIUS accounting messages
COA Request	Presence of the attribute in the COA Request message: 0: the attribute is not present in the message 0+: 0 or more instances of the attribute can be present in the message 0-1: 0 or 1 instance of the attribute can be present in the message 1: exactly 1 instance of the attribute is present in the message
COA key	The attribute can be used as part of the CoA key to identify one or multiple sessions
IPoE session	The attribute applies to IPoE sessions
PPPoE session	The attribute applies to PPPoE sessions
PPPoE LAC session	The attribute applies to PPPoE LAC sessions. A PPPoE LAC session is a PPPoE session that is forwarded to an L2TP LNS instead of routed locally.
FWA session	The attribute applies to Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) sessions. An FWA session uses mobile wireless access technology for connectivity.

IU Triggers

Column	Description
ID	ID of the trigger The ID equals the value of the Alc-Acct-Triggered-Reason attribute
Name	Human-readable name of the trigger as it appears in the published RADIUS dictionary.
Description	Description of the trigger
Buffered as critical	When buffering of the Interim Update messages is enabled, up to four critical Interim Update messages per session are buffered to prevent loss of data. Critical Interim Update messages are not overwritten because they relate to events that would be lost in subsequent accounting messages, such as termination of a service. Only the last noncritical Interim Update message per session is buffered. It is overwritten with the Stop message when the session terminates.
CLI	The CLI command to enable sending this trigger The context is: configure mobile-gateway profile charging bng radius session update-triggers
Session accounting	The trigger applies to session accounting

Known issues with the tool

Resizing the columns may lead to unexpected formatting issues. If this occurs, refresh the page to reset the column widths to their defaults.
When sorting a column that contains numerical data, the resulting order may be inconsistent or nonsequential. Sorting can only be done in the RADIUS attributes view.
The search functionality currently supports only string and substring searches. Regular expression searches are not currently supported.
