Brian,

That is the correct way for operation!

Radius "Listens" on Ports 1812 and 1813 ( for authentication and accounting 
respectively) BUT responds back to the NAS on the first non-priviledged port the 
system has available for use.... this is normal RFC operation in TCP/IP communications 
for services - don't believe it? Perform an FTP or Telnet or HTTP operation and watch 
the traffic with a network sniffer - they do the same thing [grin]...
