We used to use a couple of Max6000's for dialup, and I'm 90% certain
that, as of a certain software version, there is an option to switch
over to using VSAs rather than the hijacked ones.
Given that those boxes were last upgraded prior to 2000, I wonder how
many people are really in the situation where they can't upgrade, and
are likely to be using FreeRadius 2.2?
It's not something I have much of an opinion on though - we binned them
years ago!
