It's just an attribute. What do you want to do with it?

Well, the new NAS device sends 5 different NAS-Identifier. eg WebAdmin, SSLVPN or HTTP. But only one RADIUS can be configured.
I'm just thinking about that users can be authenticated via RADIUS server1 and admin(webadmins) can be authenticated via RADIUS server2. Or similar like that.
Currently, I don't have any clue to take advantage of the NAS-Identifier. Where is this attribute configured on the RADIUS. Other devices send the NAS-IP, but this is only relevant for the shared secret or the accouting.
Cheers.
