Off-topic: DHCP server with radius support

[Eshun Benjamin]

RADIUS was *originally* intented to assign IP's.  It's been doing that
since at least 1993.

Do you mean radius servers has being doing DHCP since 1993 or  IP pool stuff. What is is the difference?

Do you want to do that or 

"That RFC actually describes the opposite of what we are talking about. (ie. 
How a RADIUS server can ask a DHCP server to assign an IP instead of how a 
DHCP server can ask a RADIUS server to assign an IP) "
