Is it the cable modem or the CMTS that would be the RADIUS client?  I
would have thought the latter.  Either way, if they are standards
compliant RADIUS clients, then yes, FreeRADIUS can help.  Depending upon
the vendor of your CMTS/Cable Modems, you may have to write a vendor
dictionary but that's relatively straight forward.  The format is easily
copied from other files.

Guy
