The IESG has received a request from the RADIUS EXTensions WG (radext) to
consider the following document:
- 'Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) Protocol
   Extensions'
  <draft-ietf-radext-radius-extensions-08.txt> as Proposed Standard

Note that this document is Standards Track and has normative references 
to two Informational documents, RFCs 2866 and 5176. 
See http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/radext/current/msg07979.html
for some history on those two RFCs.

The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits
final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2013-01-25. Exceptionally, comments may be
sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the
beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting.

Abstract


   The Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) protocol is
   nearing exhaustion of its current 8-bit Attribute Type space.  In
   addition, experience shows a growing need for complex grouping, along
   with attributes which can carry more than 253 octets of data.  This
   document defines changes to RADIUS which address all of the above
   problems.
