You would need Enterprise Licenses on A-C and a standard license on D.

Assuming that you don't have to strip anything (it doesn't sound
like you do) then yes.

The only way the first scenario would benefit you is if A,B,C
were caching the information on the local side, which they are not.
RadiusNT 3.0 has some caching/spooling features that would make
this scnario beneficial, but RadiusNT 2.5 does not.

I'd still go with scenario B, until the a-c RADIUS servers do
smart caching.
