RADIUS attribute from rfc2868
Tunnel-Medium-Type
The Tunnel-Medium-Type Attribute indicates which transport medium
to use when creating a tunnel for those protocols (such as L2TP)
that can operate over multiple transports. It MAY be included in
both Access-Request and Access-Accept packets; if it is present in
an Access-Request packet, it SHOULD be taken as a hint to the
RADIUS server as to the tunnel media supported by the tunnel end-
point. The RADIUS server MAY ignore the hint, however.
A summary of the Tunnel-Medium-Type Attribute format is given below.
The fields are transmitted left to right.

Tag
The Tag field is one octet in length and is intended to provide a
means of grouping attributes in the same packet which refer to the
same tunnel. Valid values for this field are 0x01 through 0x1F,
inclusive. If the Tag field is unused, it MUST be zero (0x00).
Value
The Value field is three octets and contains one of the values
listed under "Address Family Numbers" in . For the sake of
convenience, a relevant excerpt of this list is reproduced below.
