POD is an internet draft[1].  At the time it's finalized into a final RFC,
it may be supported.  Until then, every NAS I've used allows you to reset
sessions via SNMP, so you may want to look at that vs. POD.

Cisco's implementation is a bit different than the draft [2], I don't know
of any other vendors that support POD.  Cisco reuses Auth-Req packet codes,
whereas the draft specifies new packet codes.

You could very easily use 'radclient' to send the necesary attributes.  The
ones cisco uses are simply standard attributes:

    User-Name
    Framed-IP-Address
    Session-Id
    Session-Key

I don't know how other vendors approach it, but most likely they will
all be different, and it'll end up with something like the 'checksimul'
script which has to handle each nas differently.
