Some information from the RADIUS attributes is likely
saved and exposed in some ways, but if you are asking about all RADIUS
attributes in general, no, they are not available.

I guess it would be reasonable to add option to save such information
for the duration of an association. That said, this can use quite a bit
of memory, so it probably make sense to make this configurable behavior.

Are you thinking of mainly (only?) information from Access-Accept or
would there be need to store attributes from Access-Challenge as well?
