If you're lucky, you can configure the NAS to send an Accounting-Start packet after it reboots. Then the stale sessions can be closed. If not: too bad. There is nothing in the RADIUS protocol that can help you decide whether a user session is still online or not. You can of course guess and mark the sessions as closed after a while. There are some scripts in FR that can help. I guess reading "Simultaneous Use" in the documentation directory might help.
