Because the radius protocol specifies a retransmission policy (due to UDP), if
Radiator does not see a response to a Request that it has sent, it will
continue to resend the packet until it receives a reply or until it has sent
the maximum number of retries defined in the configuration file. I don't think
putting filters in place is the right course of action.
Perhaps you could tell me what the problem is? Why are multiple responses a
problem - there may be another way to deal with it.

Hugh
