[RadiusNT] How does Timebanking work ?

Can anyone explain how timebanking in RadiusNT works ?

My understanding is that as someone authenticates, RadiusNT consults the
TimeLeft field. If it is greater than 0, then it sends a SESSION-TIMEOUT
attribute (value=TimeLeft) to the NAS.

When the user disconnects, then TIMELEFT = TIMELEFT - ACCT-SESSION-TIME .

Did I get it right ?

I'm running RadiusNT in debug mode ( -o -x15 -R31) and I can see the
TIMELEFT = TIMELEFT - ACCT-SESSION-TIME .

But I couldn't detect the first part where a SESSION-TIMEOUT attribute is
dished out by RadiusNT.

Can anyone assist me here ?
