Hi Guys,
    Hope you don't mind me jumping in here..

I've been wondering the same question too.

The reason is for basic security. As our company has a large number of 
routers (4,000 or so), it would be 'A good thing' to periodically (once or 
twice a year) change the radius keys.  The problem is, your Radiator config 
file would bloat out to several thousand lines extra with all of the 
<Client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx> statements for each client with the updated Radius 
key to override the <Client DEFAULT> key..

The radius keys would eventually be moved back to a single key, but it 
would be great to have a fallback to the older key for routers that may 
have been un-contactable, or for some reason re-loaded with an older 
configuration with the older radius key (believe me, it happens :(   )

Regards,
Robert Moss.
