Examine your NAS documentation and determine what method can be
used to query it (SNMP, finger or other). Next, construct an appropriate
entry in raddb/nastypes. Possibly you will have to write a special
Rewrite function for analyzing the reply. See

http://www.gnu.org.ua/software/radius/manual/html_node/radius_89.html#SEC177

for the general description of active session verification process,

http://www.gnu.org.ua/software/radius/manual/html_node/radius_49.html#SEC118

for the description of raddb/nastypes and examples, and

http://www.gnu.org.ua/software/radius/manual/html_node/radius_115.html#SEC208

for examples of login verification functions in Rewrite.

Notice also that since the NAS is operated by another company you will
have to contact their sysadmin and ask him to give you appropriate
permissions (SNMP community, etc) to query their server.
