[cisco-nas] IP Pool usage tracking

[Francisco (fxdomin2)]

I believe that the concern was regarding scripting to keep
track of things, but, SNMP polling would make things easy in
terms of scripts or even a simple expect script.

If you need help, let me know the OS's that you could run
scripts on and I can write something up.

I had a feeling you'd say something like that.  I know that
at least some
RADIUS servers can support giving out IPs from a pool
(probably even a
pool per radius client), but that just moves the problem
from the access
servers to the RADIUS servers and makes routing more
interesting.  Either
you end up with lots of /32's or you configure some
summary-addresses on
the access-servers, at which point you may as well have
assigned the pools
via local pool.
