You want to check the huntsgroup stuff. It allows you to put NAS' into
groups and specify which Radius server to use for a given group. You
don't have to setup multiple Radius servers, just specify virtual ones
(sites-enabled) with a different port and that's it.

If that old version does not support huntsgroup you sadly have to
upgrade. at least 2.1.12 supports it.
