Hi Saravan
tried both the string and unsigned both the times ISAM fails it.
But in the free radius with attribute defined as string it works fine.
Surprisingly the radius message output of both the unsigned and string shows value as 230 from aruba which i am expecting but the encoding/formatting is creating the problem.
very close to the solution but still eluding can you please help
details from radius, the error message from the box when it fails for unsigned and string are given below
Authentication successful when done from free radius server
atribute set as string and hexadecimal
