For all of our Maxes (40xx T1/PRI):
Servers.ServerType = 5
Servers.SNMPType = (null)
Example SNMPUser for one of our Maxes (port 10101):
.1.3.6.1.4.1.529.12.3.1.4.10102
Why is this ...10102 and not ...10101? I see the "port+1" portion of the
update script, but don't understand why the +1 is there.

The radlogin results displayed only the following info for a user that was
known to already be online:

Checking Radius user jon:
Reply-Message = "User: test already logged onto system 1 time(s)."
Good: 0 Bad: 1 T/O: 0 Avg: 30

Radius -x18 displayed the following info for the same user. All the
preceding options settings are listed further below.

radrecv: Request from host 7f000001 code=1, id=183, length=55
Sending Reject of id 183 to 7f000001 (localhost)
User: test already logged onto system 1 time(s).
Resp Time: 70 Auth: 0/1 -> 1 Acct: 0/0/0 -> 0

The preceding info...
C:\radius>radius -x18
