Hi, I have a possible feature (an extension of existing behaviour, rather) for eapol_test. Eapol_test has the -N attribute sending feature, but at the moment it does not support vendor-specific attributes (VSAs) in a simple format similar to the existing -N<attr_id>:<syntax>:<value> format. So, I'm thinking of adding it either as an extension (i.e. extending syntax from s, d, and x, to s, d, x, and v) or as a separate switch (-V) altogether. Given that the functionality would simply take the value portion to dig out the vendor enterprise number, its attr_id, syntax and the value and reuse most of the existing stuff, I'm wondering which Jouni and the people at large in this group would prefer. For example, send the VSA of 'Cisco-AVPair="foo=bar"'. Existing approach: -N 26:x:000000090109666f6f3d626172 Approach 1: -N 26:v:9:1:s:foo=bar Approach 2: -N 26.9.1:s:foo=bar Approach 3: -V 9.1:s:foo=bar For me, personally, 1 or 2 make sense, more specifically, 1 does. If we add the token 'v', we can then go over the remaining value with the same parser again, but make sure we only use the dictionary for vendor 9 (Cisco). Suggestions are welcome.
