As far as I know, the Radius protocol itself knows nothing about clock time,
only delta time. The Timestamp attribute internal to Radiator is the time the
packet was received (adjusted by Acct-Delay-Time if present), and is the number
of seconds from midnight January 1, 1970 UTC (section 6.25.12 in the manual).
BTW - the GRIC attributes define a Timestamp, but you would have to check with
GRIC what it is meant to represent (and it would only be useful in a GRIC
context).
