See RFC 3162 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3162.txt)

The attributes mentioned in RFC 3162 seem to be all available
in the dictonary provided with radiator.

# From RFC 3162, RADIUS and IPv6: some should be IPV6 addresses

ATTRIBUTE       NAS-IPv6-Address                95      binary
ATTRIBUTE       Framed-Interface-Id             96      string
ATTRIBUTE       Framed-IPv6-Prefix              97      string
ATTRIBUTE       Login-IPv6-Host                 98      binary
ATTRIBUTE       Framed-IPv6-Route               99      string
ATTRIBUTE       Framed-IPv6-Pool                100     string

Making radiator to listen to IPv6 is probably more a perl issue.
As far as I know perl doesn't support IPv6 out of the box.

I do use ssh over IPv6 to access our NASes. But that is probably
not what you mean.
