Abstract The document defines some new values for the NAS-Port-Type RADIUS attribute. 1. Introduction This document defines a set of new values for the NAS-Port-Type RADIUS attribute[RFC2865]. Yan Expires February 18, 2007 [Page 1] Internet-Draft New NAS-Port-Type Values August 2006 2. NAS-Port-Type Value This document defines new values for the NAS-Port-Type Attribute. This specification concerns the following values: Value Description ------------------------------------------------- TBD Wireless - IEEE 802.16 [802.16] TBD Wireless - IEEE 802.20 [802.20] TBD Wireless - IEEE 802.22 [802.22] They are intended to indicate the physical port of the NAS which is authenticating the user accessing using IEEE 802.16, IEEE 802.20 and IEEE 802.22. 3. IANA Considerations IANA is requested to assign Type values, TBD, for this attribute from the RADIUS Types registry [RADTYP], according to the allocation policy given in [RFC3575]. 4.
