The "radius_extra" parameter only allows you to send extra values to the
Radius server, to be logged for accounting. You cannot fetch any value from
an accounting reply.

The functionality you are looking for is provided by the new AAA_RADIUS
module. Using the functions exported by this module you can yield directly
from the script any type of Radius query and also inspect replies for
certain attributes.
For more information, check out the
tutorial<http://www.opensips.org/Resources/DocsTutRadius>and the
documentation<http://www.opensips.org/html/docs/modules/devel/aaa_radius.html>
 .
If you have any other uncertainties, please let me know. Any other
suggestions are welcome as well.
