Any suggestion/tip on how can I migrate from v1 to v2 considering that
I have few "invalid" attributes on production today (Download/Upload
for example) that it was implemented using the numbers I already
mentioned here, so I don't need to mess with 11,000 of customers
radreply attributes (that are configured with Download/Upload values)
without naming-change? Maybe it will not be there best thing to do,
but as a next step.
