Well well.. both are optional in this context. Specs says:

      An Access-Request SHOULD contain a NAS-Port or NAS-Port-Type
      attribute or both unless the type of access being requested does
      not involve a port or the NAS does not distinguish among its
      ports.

and

NAS-Port

      This Attribute indicates the physical port number of the NAS which
      is authenticating the user.  It is only used in Access-Request
      packets.  Note that this is using "port" in its sense of a
      physical connection on the NAS, not in the sense of a TCP or UDP
      port number.  Either NAS-Port or NAS-Port-Type (61) or both SHOULD
      be present in an Access-Request packet, if the NAS differentiates
      among its ports.

But I understand that there might be RADIUS servers which don't grok
that there might be access servers without any concept of physical
ports.

Thanks. Applied and will be included in the next squid_radius_auth
release.
