Once upon a time Matthew N. Dodd shaped the electrons to say...

The rather important point you fail to mention is that when 1.16 was written
the protocol did not call for authenticated ACKs. That was added by the
working group long after 1.16 was released. So *of course* 1.16 doesn't deal
with them.

RADIUS 2.0 is our first major revision since that change and it does the
authentication on ACKs.
