I'm not entirely sure if the above URL maps to
ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/enterprise-numbers as per RFC 1700

assuming *all* of these registered vendors actually have radius authentication
and accounting server and or client embedded in software, and are capable of
doing at least 8 bit VSA, then yes then this seems like a good idea.
