Supported IETF attributes in RFC 5176
Describes the supported IETF attributes and error clause values.
Some of the supported IETF attributes are listed in the following table.
| Attribute Name | Attribute Number | Description |
|---|---|---|
| NAS-IP-Address | 4 | IPv4 address of NAS |
| NAS-Identifier | 32 | The port, where the session is terminated |
| NAS-IPv6-Address | 95 | IPv6 address of NAS |
| Calling-Station-Id | 31 | Link address from which sessions are connected |
| Filter-ID | 11 | Indicates the name of a data filter list to be applied for the sessions that the identification attributes map to. |
Error clause values
When the NAS cannot honor the disconnect message and CoA requests, the NAS sends corresponding NAK responses. These responses must include the error clause attribute to provide more details on the possible cause of the problem. The format of this error clause attribute is the same as any other attribute and the value field consists of a 4-byte integer.
The error cause attribute values are organized in the following series:
- 0-199 Reserved
- 200-299 Successful completion
- 300-399 Reserved
- 400-499 Fatal errors committed by Dynamic Authorization Client (DAC)
- 500-599 Fatal errors committed by Dynamic Authorization Server (DAS)

| 401 | Unsupported attribute |

| 403 | NAS identification mismatch |
| 404 | Invalid Request |
| 405 | Unsupported services |
| 407 | Invalid attribute value |
| 501 | Administratively prohibited (used when a CoA request or disconnect message is ignored because of configuration) |
