Connect-Info RADIUS Attribute 77
The Connect-Info RADIUS Attribute 77 feature enables the Network Access Server (NAS) to report Connect-Info (attribute 77) in RADIUS accounting "start" and "stop" records that are sent to the RADIUS client (dial-in modem). These records allow the transmit and receive connection speeds, modulation, and compression to be compared in order to analyze a user session over a dial-in modem where speeds are often different at the end of the connection (after negotiation).
When the network access server (NAS) sends attribute 77 in accounting "start" and "stop" records, the connect rates can be measured across the platform. The "transmit" speed (the speed at which the NAS modem sends information) and "receive" speed (the speed at which the NAS receives information) can be recorded to determine whether user modem connections renegotiate to lower speeds shortly into a session. If the transmit and receive speeds are different from each other, attribute 77 reports both speeds, which allows the modem connection speeds that each customer gets from their session.
Attribute 77 is also used to send the Class string for broadband connections such as PPPoX, physical connection speeds for dial access, and the VRF string for any sessions on router interfaces defined with ip vrf forwarding command.
Note This feature requires no configuration.

Prerequisites for Connect-Info RADIUS Attribute 77
Before the NAS can send attribute 77 in accounting "start" and "stop" records, you must perform the following tasks:
•Configure your NAS for authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) and to accept incoming modem calls.
•Enable AAA accounting by using the aaa accounting network default start-stop group radius command in global configuration mode.
•Change the modem poll timer by using the modem link-info poll time command in global configuration mode. (Changing the modem poll timer is required on all supported platforms except the Cisco AS5400).
How to Verify the Connect-Info RADIUS Attribute 77
To verify attribute 77 in your accounting "start" and "stop" records, use the debug radius privileged EXEC command. The following example shows that Connect-Info appears in the first and last accounting attributes:
Router# debug radius
RADIUS: code=Acct-Request id=04 len=0134
authenticator=BE A2 F3 BD EE CE 89 C7 - 48 19 32 F5 79 84 94 D5
T=Connect-Info[77] L=17 V="31200/33600 V34+/LAPM"
T=Acct-Status-Type[40] L=06 V=Start [1]
...
RADIUS: code=Acct-Request id=07 len=0226
authenticator=06 AC 03 10 4A 84 44 A4 - 6F D9 68 AA B3 90 44 CB
...
T=Connect-Info[77] L=1F V="33600 V34+/LAPM (31200/336"
T=Acct-Status-Type[40] L=06 V=Stop [2]
...
Note If the modem negotiation speeds are different, the speeds are shown in a bracket format at the end of the call.
