Technical Summary
A NAS (network access server) 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 configuration parameters to be delivered to
sub-option enables a network element to pass along attributes for
the user of a device received during RADIUS authentication to a
DHCP server.
