(RADIATOR) how to SNMP to an address other than NAS-IP-Address?

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Dave -

The best way to deal with this problem is to define a loopback  
interface in each device and use it for both RADIUS and SNMP. This  
avoids problems with using any of the physical interfaces on the device.

Otherwise all I can think of is a hook to rewrite the NAS-IP-Address  
before it gets written into the session database.

regards

Hugh

NB:

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/ 
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
