Reading between the lines on the original problem

a) is the normal situation for a valid user
b) would occur when the user is currently not authorised, due to
   perhaps not paying their bill
c) is acheived by paying the bill via the portal, which updates
   Radius to then allow that user. Then the user MUST disconnect &
   reconnect to setup a new session (this is normally due to the
   NAS or BRAS limitations)
