Actually, radius allows this just fine - to do what you specifically
want to do, for example, you'd just put something like this at the end
of your radius users file:

DEFAULT         Password = "UNIX"
                User-Service = Framed-User,
                Framed-Protocol = PPP,
                Framed-Routing = None,
                Framed-Address = 255.255.255.254,
                Framed-Netmask = 255.255.255.255,
                Framed-Compression = Van-Jacobsen-TCP-IP,
                Framed-MTU = 1006
