how to define Vendor ID in clearpass for an enterprise

[Muthu]

Hi All

I am Muthu from Nokia ( Fromerly Alcatel-lucent)

would like to know how to define Vendor ID in the radius Dictionary file.

The product we are using is ISAM 7360. The vendor id is 637

Please refer to the attachment.  In the radius attribute i see only vendor id 800 and 3041 for alcatel. Would like to include the vendor ID 637 and use it for our testing . Please guide how to do it.

Thanks,

S.Muthukannan

Export an existing dictionary, modify, then reimport.

" File contains invalid XML tags. Try export to see the valid XML tags"

The ID needs to be an integer.

Its a 2 byte value  defined in Hexadecimal. can i change that to integer and load it ?

After changing to Integer as well same issue

Hi Muthu,

I think, there is a confusion between attribute ID vs attribute values. You need the correct attribute IDs to import the dictinory. I

see you have converted the hex values to decimel and added them as IDs. That will not work, I haven't seen IDs of 4 digits yet :)

For Ex: 0x06A1 >> 1697.

Is "0x06A1" hex value need to be return with the attribute "A-ESAM-PoL-Fwd-ID"?

If yes, then find out the correct IDs for the below three attributes and then import the dictionary. 

A-ESAM-PoL-Fwd-ID
A-ESAM-PoL-Vp-ID

A-ESAM-PoL-Client-Type

Notes:

You need to use the type "Unsigned32" instead of "Integer".

If you want to return hex values, then use the type "OctetArray".

Saravanan,

Let me try that and get back. In the mean time is there a way to define attributes length from the Clearpass GUI /CLI . here in this case looking for 2 bytes value to be defined

Thanks
