  The usual reasons for not upgrading are political.

  If you want to convince your boss to allow an upgrade, read this page:

  What does that mean?

  Politeness does help...

  If you want to change the update interval, just add Acct-Interim-Update to the reply, with the appropriate value:

authorize {
	...
	update reply {
		Acct-Interim-Update = 3600
	}
	...
}

  But be aware that:

- not all NASes will honour this.  Many will ignore ie.
- the allowed values are still limited.  Minutes to hours will likely work.
- setting Acct-Interim-Update to days will likely be ignored by the NAS, or set to a maximum value such as 3600.
