It's normal because there are so many thing to restart to take care 
about the new configuration, like apache, radius, pfsetvlan ... We are 
working on it.

Yep , it's the packetfence question, why you can't remove a node, in 
fact it's because packetfence think that the node is active in the 
network (dhcp, activity). So if the node is active you can't remove it 
but you can unreg it.

No you will never receive radius request from the uplink port.

Look at /usr/local/pf/lib/pf/vlan/custom.pm you will find the answer ;-)
