RADIUS Support for IPv6

The Oracle® Enterprise Session Border Controller’s RADIUS support now includes:

  • RADIUS CDR generation for SIPv6-SIPv6 and SIPv6-SIPv4 calls
  • IPv6-based addresses in RADIUS CDR attributes

This means that for the CDR attributes in existence prior to the introduction of IPv6 to the Acme Packet 4500 are mapped to the type ipaddr, which indicates four-byte field. The sixteen-byte requirement for IPv6 addresses is now supported, and there are a parallel set of attributes with the type ipv6addr. Attributes 155-170 are reserved for the IPv6 addresses.

NAS addresses use the number 95 to specify the NAS-IPV6-Address attribute. And local CDRs now contain IPv6 addresses.
