Internet-Draft New NAS-Port-Type Values February 2005
1. Introduction
This document defines a set of new values for the NAS-Port-Type
Attribute [RFC2865]. [RFC3575] states that "Certain attributes (for
example, NAS-Port-Type) in RADIUS define a list of values to
correspond with various meanings. There can be 4 billion (2^32)
values for each attribute. Additional values can be allocated by the
Designated Expert."
This document is intended to act as both a request for the
designation of an expert and a resource for that expert's review.
Discussion of this draft may be directed to the authors.
2. NAS-Port-Type Values
This document defines new values for the NAS-Port-Type Attribute.
This specification concerns the following values:
30 PPPoA (PPP over ATM [RFC3336])
31 PPPoEoA (PPP over Ethernet [RFC2516] over ATM)
32 PPPoEoE (PPP over Ethernet [RFC2516] over Ethernet
33 PPPoEoVLAN (PPP over Ethernet [RFC2516] over VLAN)
34 PPPoEoQinQ (PPP over Ethernet [RFC2516] over IEEE 802.1QinQ)
38 IPSEC [RFC2411]
3. IANA Considerations
This section explains the criteria to be used by the IANA for
assignment of numbers within namespaces defined within this document.
The "Expert Review" policy is used here with the meaning defined in
BCP 26 [RFC2434].
3.1 Attribute Values
[RFC3575] states that "Certain attributes (for example,
NAS-Port-Type) in RADIUS define a list of values to correspond with
various meanings. There can be 4 billion (2^32) values for each
attribute. Additional values can be allocated by the Designated
Expert."
This document is intended to act as both a request for the

Internet-Draft New NAS-Port-Type Values February 2005
designation of an expert and a resource for the expert's review.
4. Security Considerations
This specification neither adds to nor detracts from the security of
the RADIUS protocol.
