  That's a terrible solution.

  No.  Packets go to ONE destination, and ONLY one destination.

  Add a column to the accounting table.  It should be "LNS IP Address".
 Then, update the accounting queries to store Packet-Src-IP-Address there.

  For CoA, you just look up the session in the accounting table, and
sent the CoA packet to the LNS IP Address.
