(RADIATOR) SnmpgetProg & Maxsessions check

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello -

You are correct, you can only query the NAS's and maintain a session 
database from the level of the proxy server.

As you rightly point out, if you are receiving the requests from a 
proxy, the only Client clause is for the proxy itself, not the NAS's.

regards

Hugh
