You want to configure something at the client so the NAS/BRAS will
include some attributes allowing your Radius server to tell if this is
the same client? To enforce some per-user session-limit, which allows
the ISDN connection even if the PPPoE/DSL session is still up on the
BRAS, I guess?
Well, tricky. Can't think of anything we can use. Theoretically, with
multilink we could use the endpoint-discriminator, but currently this
does not seem to be supported.

Maybe we can suggest more if you tell us why you need this?
