*NOTE* that Ascend-Maximum-Channels has nothing to do with the maximum
number of sessions. It is only the maximum number of channels for EACH
session.

Multiple sessions by the same user on a single Max can be controlled via the
Shared Prof=Yes/No configuration setting.

For controlling this over multiple units, you need a RADIUS daemon that has
this feature.
