Yes this is certainly possible, and many people have handled migration
issues in exactly this way.

You don't mention how you want to configure the new Radiator
implementation, but here is a simple example showing how to relay *all*
requests to your old system, and also save the acounting details both top SQL
and to a file. You can then add things to Radiator as they
become available.

Here's an example:

<Realm ....>
        AuthByPolicy ContinueAlways
        # This saves the accounting to asn SQL database:
        <AuthBy SQL>
                # the usual stuff

                AuthSelect

                AcctColumnDef ....
                AcctColumnDef ....
        </AuthBy>

# Set up an AuthBy to forward requests to the old Radius server
        <AuthBy Radius>
                Host  radiushost
                Secret  yoursecret
        </AuthBy>

        # This also saves the accounting to a local file
        AcctLogFileName %L/detail

</Realm>


Hope that helps.

Cheers.
