Re: [PATCH] Do not send a NAS-Port attribute in Access-Request and Accounting-Request RADIUS packets as the association id is likely to always be 0.

[Nick Lowe <nick.lowe@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jouni,

It is because the value is not conceptually available where auth takes
place before assoc.

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3580#section-3.4

"Where IEEE 802.1X authentication occurs prior to association, a
unique NAS-Port value may not be available."

hostapd always sends a value of 0 in this scenario.

Regards,

Nick
