It is ok with me if this document solely handles NAS location, so that we
can (quickly) create another document to handle user location. However,
it is not accurate to say that user location is rarely useful for AAA.
There are now shipping products that support location-based access
control:

Some scenarios in which this is used:
a. High security installations, where access is only permitted within
restricted areas.
b. Manufacturing, where it is important to track the location of people
and parts.
c. Medical, where it is important to know the location of medical
personnel.
d. E911, where the location of an emergency call is determined by the AP,
and provided to the RADIUS server.
