I see. But now User-Name value set to Digest-Username at Digest-Realm 
getted from Digest credentials. I think that it's incorrect because 
User-Name must be used for purpose of authorization (not to check 
authentication) and so it must be setted to From AOR value.

Yes it's my opinion too. I'll try to do it ASAP.

But Calling-Station-Id and Called-Station-Id are standard attributes for 
Access-Request in ISP-world and they are really useful in ITSP-world too.

Thanks!
