That is correct. Radius doesn't do bandwidth limiting per se. If you have a radius client that supports that feature then you can push a rule to it. Does your customers have nat'ed addresses or do they have public ones. You don't need a radius server that can talk to device, you need a device that can talk to your radius server. If you have nat'ed customers then it will be extremely difficult, in addition to being extremely poor business practices. In the situation with public address you could just add an Allot bandwidth manager, but this costs some money. There are so many ways to do rate limiting, it just depends on your topology. This post is getting extreme off topic, if you need any more help, email me directly.
