Accounting : Alvarion WiMax Base Station as NAS

Session-Timeout is supported. At some point you could not set the session
timeout greater than 65536 or the timer rolled over. We simply set ours to a
number lower than that. I haven't tested with the various firmware updates
we've received in the last year to see if this is still the case.
