Classic RADIUS has an MD5 based authenticator which depends upon the IP address.
It can sometimes be made to work through NAPTs, but in general it doesn't.
Newer mechanisms get rid of this, replacing it all with DTLS, which doesn't
care, but the classic stuff is pretty widespread.
On the other hand, it is easily proxied from IPv6 to IPv4 should the
radius server be unable to speak IPv6.
