(RADIATOR) Cisco Packet of Disconnect

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Hesham -

The actual radius request is a "Disconnect-Request" as defined in the more 
recent radius rfc's. The thing to keep in mind is that the NAS software must 
implement special radius *server* capabilities to support the 
"Disconnect-Request" processing.

You can use radpwtst to send a "Disconnect-Request" to a NAS directly, or you 
can use Radiator to proxy it if you wish.

Check with your NAS vendor to see if it is supported.

regards

Hugh
