Because I didn't arrange a machine for test it yet :)

No, I wanted an IPv6 only, but I wasn't sure if Freeradius was 
communicating with NAS in IPv6 only packets, or if it was encapsulating 
IPv6 attributes (RFC 3162) over IPv4 packets.

I already red the RFC 3162, and I think that was the idea, but I asked to 
the list this questions to had sure. 

Good, that means that it works with packets in both network protocols, 
depending of NAS support.

Thanks for the help, and I will try that when I will have opportunity.
