	Issue: SFTP and SCP has been left out as explicit managed
administrative protocols.
	Submitter name:  Mauricio Sanchez
	Submitter email address: mauricio.sanchez@hp.com
	Date first submitted: 5/9/2005
	Reference: 
	Document: draft-nelson-radius-management-authorization-01.txt
	Comment type: T
	Priority: S
	Section: 8.1, 8.2
	Rationale/Explanation of issue:  see below 
	Length description of problem 
	SFTP and SCP should be treated seperately from SSH-based console
access.  SFTP and SCP are SSH-based file transfer services and should
not implicity be lumped with console based access. 

	Requested change: 
	Suggest that a new values (4) and (5) be allocated under the
'Framed-Management-Protocol' (section 8.1) or the
'Non-Framed-Managed-Protocol' (section 8.2) attribute for SFTP and SCP
protocols, respectively. It's not clear to me whether SCP and SFTP
should be considered a framed or non-framed protocol.  Moreover, draft
should elaborate on the explicit meaning of SSH being used in only a
console access role for administrative purposes (which is it's nominal
role anyway).
