MORE INFORMATION

After you apply this hotfix, both the remote access policy and the connection request policy contain the Generate-Class-Attribute attribute. You can set the Generate-Class-Attribute attribute in either the remote access policy or the connection request policy. However, you cannot set the Generate-Class-Attribute attribute in both the remote access policy and the connection request policy. This is because IAS cannot decide which setting takes a higher priority and overwrites the other setting. If you set the Generate-Class-Attribute attribute in both the remote access policy and the connection request policy, IAS discards the settings and generates a value for the Class attribute.
