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. 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Type | Length | Tag | Value | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Value (cont) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Type 65 for Tunnel-Medium-Type Length 6 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).
