(RADIATOR) Problem with Ascend

[Raymond Brighenti]

http://www.open.com.au/radiator/faq.html
71. My TNT sends authentication request for silly user names like "banner", 
"route1" etc
By Default Ascend TNT will try to configure itself at startup by asking for 
various configuraiton items from the Radius server.
You can turn this behaviour off with:

         read EXTERNAL-AUTH
         set rad-auth-client allow-auth-config-rqsts = no

To turn off the Remote config for a Max it's the following

  Ethernet->Mod Config->TServ options->Remote Conf=No
