Depends on what you want to do with the accounting data. You might find
that tracking your users when NAS-IP-Address is the same becomes really
awkward[1]. Anything that keys off that attribute (such as
Acct-Unique-Session-Id, as Acct-Session-Id is rarely unique) might cause
your grief.
So, authentication should work...you might have some problems with
simulateous logins *possibly* and your accounting records might be a
pain to work with.
You need to define what 'work' means for yourself and decide from there.
Cheers
[1] then you hope your venduh lets you amend the NAS-Identifier
attribute
