Log NAS IP rather than Shortname - PLEASE

There may be some confusion, I am currently logging auth and accounting
information in seperate folders that are labeled by client ip addresses, but
those are the detail auth logs, I am working with just the radius.log file.
Below is a sample of what I get in the radius log file, notice the from
client 207.32.194.0/23 is the subnet which is in the clients.conf file also
attached below.  So rather than manually entering all my router ips is there
a shorter way to edit the way the radius.log file is built?

*SAMPLE from Radius.log

Fri Jun  3 12:39:17 2011 : Auth: Login incorrect: [00:60:B3:3C:A2:3C/] (from
cli
ent 207.32.194.0/23 port 2207252597)
*SAMPLE from clients.conf file
client 207.32.194.0/23 {
 secret  = nottellin
 shortname =
}


I did browse thru some of the previous posts but never really saw any
answers... I have a feeling I will need to do what the clients.conf file
recommends and that is to manually enter each one of my routers  :(  a
script would be nice to do that but I am not very educated in scripting
etc...   thanks for any additional help!
