Attribute-Value (A-V) pairs. See Chapter 34: “Attribute-Value Pairs” (page 537) for
information about the data format of A-V pairs in RADIUS messages.
IMPORTANT: Configuration files have a maximum input line length of 255 characters.
No checking is done to insure that a configuration statement has not exceeded this
limit. All configuration files must end with a new line.
You can track different versions of the dictionary file by adding the following line to
the file:
%DICTID Version-String
Version-String
is the version information. This string will appear in radcheck
output.
