no - you can call PERL from pre-auth, auth, post-auth, accounting etc
at which point the chosen script defined in the PERL section
of experimental.conf will be run and the subroutine associated
with the call will be run - at which point you can inspect
any RADIUS attribute, make a decision and return updated
attributes, ok, reject and so on.
