RFC 8044
Title: Data Types in RADIUS
Author: A. DeKok
Status: Standards Track
Stream: IETF
Date: January 2017
Mailbox: aland@freeradius.org
Pages: 35
Characters: 63324
Updates: RFC 2865, RFC 3162, RFC 6158, RFC 6572, RFC 7268
I-D Tag: draft-ietf-radext-datatypes-08.txt

DOI: 10.17487/RFC8044
RADIUS specifications have used data types for two decades without
defining them as managed entities. During this time, RADIUS
implementations have named the data types and have used them in
attribute definitions. This document updates the specifications to
better follow established practice. We do this by naming the data
types defined in RFC 6158, which have been used since at least the
publication of RFC 2865. We provide an IANA registry for the data
types and update the "RADIUS Attribute Types" registry to include a
Data Type field for each attribute. Finally, we recommend that
authors of RADIUS specifications use these types in preference to
existing practice. This document updates RFCs 2865, 3162, 4072,
6158, 6572, and 7268.
This document is a product of the RADIUS EXTensions Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
