how are the Radius dictionary files used?

[Eliot Lear <lear () ofcourseimright com>]

Hi everyone,

I'm doing some work to add support for a new DHCP option.  I've already
added and tested code in the appropriate dissector files, but I see that
there are several files in the radius/ directory (dictionary.dhcp and
dictionary.freedhcp).  These look roughly like the dictionary files used
by freeradius, but with the possibility of compound types.  The option
I'm adding is fairly straight forward: it's a length and string.  It
doesn't get much simpler.  Should I place an entry in these files
indicating "byte string"?

Apologies if this is in a FAQ somewhere.  A pointer to the answer would
be fine.

Thanks,

Eliot
