A network access device may choose to authenticate the identity of a
device before granting that device access to the network. The IEEE
802.1X protocol is an example of a mechanism for providing
authenticated layer 2 network access. A network element using RADIUS
as an authentication authority will receive attributes from a RADIUS
server that may be used by a DHCP server in the selection of an IP
address for assignment to the device through its DHCP client. The
RADIUS Attributes sub-option allows a network element to pass along
attributes for the user of a device received during RADIUS
authentication to a DHCP server.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-dhc-agentopt-radius-03.txt".
NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
