Fixed IP addresses

We're currently using pooled addresses with several PM2e-30s, starting at
domain.100 which works out okay. DNS poses some problems: A user on port 5
of term1 might get the IP address domain.105, but might just as easily get
domain.172 if he's dialing in after someone's abandoned the port.

What we'd like to do is assign a fixed IP address to each port on the PM2e
so the DNS names correspond to port numbers (helps us track problems better)
and give these preassigned IP numbers to users who dialin & get the "UNIX"
fall-through from Radius. However, if the user has an assigned IP address in
the Radius file, it should override the default port address, netmask, etc...

Is this doable?
