Table 284: RADIUS Server Status Fields
Field
Description
Current
An asterisk (*) in the column Indicates that the server is the current server for the
authentication server group. If no asterisk is present, the server is a backup server.
If more than one RADIUS server is configured with the same name, the switch selects one of
the servers to be the current server from the group of servers with the same name.
When the switch sends a RADIUS request to the named server, the request is directed to the
server selected as the current server. Initially the primary server is selected as the current
server. If the primary server fails, one of the other servers becomes the current server.
