NAS restart without proper client logout on radius (mysql)

[tnt at kalik.co.yu]

I don't think things like Mikrotik and Chillispot send such packets.
I've never seen one from our Mikrotik which is rebotted once every week
or two. I've never seen one from our Cisco either but that's because
it hasn't been rebooted in last 18 months ;-)
