(ASCEND) junk username in RADIUS stop packets
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hi all -
We're seeing a lot of junk in our RADIUS logs:
Sun Aug 10 19:11:15 1997: rad_recv:* MISSING User-Name (1) in acct-req
(type 4) request 3 from 203.96.111.165 via. 203.96.111.165[1026]
And, correspondingly in the syslogs:
970810 19:10:01 Backoff Q full, discarding user ^P0^?^?^O[239278094]
970810 19:10:01 Backoff Q full, discarding user ^P0^?^?^O[239278095]
970810 19:10:32 Backoff Q full, discarding user ^P0^?^?^O[239278096]
970810 19:11:07 Backoff Q full, discarding user ^P0^?^?^O[239278097]
970810 19:11:07 Backoff Q full, discarding user ^P0^?^?^O[239278098]
We see these from all Maxes - ISDN, R2, busy, not so busy. Seems this
background rubbish is happening all the time.
Normally it isn't a problem - but very occasionally, our RADIUS servers
get overwhelmed with acknowledging these junk accounting records, and the
backoff queues overflow.
Please, does anyone know:
1. What causes these junk records?
2. How can we get rid of them?
3. Why isn't RADIUS/LOGOUT documented anywhere?
