If a client has no fticksVISINST set, this means radsecproxy will log the client name instead.
Yes that is intended and also stated in the documentation.
However that may not be a valid operator-name (1<domain>) and it probably won't convey anything meaningful: if you don't set fticksVISINST you probably expect requests from different operators to be proxied through that client.
The f-ticks does not require the VISINST to conform to the operator-name format. It's basically free-text hand has no further meaning (see Geant deliverable DJ3.1.2,1: Roaming Developments). You can either send f-ticks in a short format (just the VISCOUNTRY) or in a long format (including the VISINST). Which one to use is set by the global option FTicksReporting (None, Basic or Full).
If the Operator-Name attribute value won't be used in the absence of fticksVISINST, then I guess it would be better to have an empty VISINST (not sure if that would be valid).
No, it wouldn't. The only option would be to use the short format (see above).
