I should clarify point 5. When the association id is available, this
should be in the NAS-Port attribute. Where it is not, the ifindex
should be in the NAS-Port attribute.
RFC 3580 says:
3.4. NAS-Port
For use with IEEE 802.1X the NAS-Port will contain the port number of
the bridge, if this is available. While an Access Point does not
have physical ports, a unique "association ID" is assigned to every
mobile Station upon a successful association exchange. As a result,
for an Access Point, if the association exchange has been completed
prior to authentication, the NAS-Port attribute will contain the
association ID, which is a 16-bit unsigned integer. Where IEEE
802.1X authentication occurs prior to association, a unique NAS-Port
value may not be available.
