.. but you have the hostname anyway in RADCLIENT. Even an official long name and a short abbreviation. So no DNS lookups are required. In fact the short name was invented exactly for this purpose. The terminology is wrong though; it would have been better to use 'address' instead of 'longname' and 'logname' or similar instead of 'shortname'. Same for NAS-IP-Address, which you can easily translate to a hostname using the NAS structure.
