1.4.7 Setting the Status of RADIUS Servers
When a primary server, authentication/authorization server or accounting server, fails,
the device automatically turns to the secondary server.
When both the primary and secondary servers are available, the device sends request
packets to the primary server.
Once the primary server fails, the primary server turns into the state of block, and the
device turns to the secondary server. In this case:
z
If the secondary server is available, the device triggers the primary server quiet
timer. After the quiet timer times out, the status of the primary server is active
again and the status of the secondary server remains the same.
z
If the secondary server fails, the device restores the status of the primary server to
active immediately.
If the primary server has resumed, the device turns to use the primary server and stops
communicating with the secondary server. After accounting starts, the communication
between the client and the secondary server remains unchanged.
Follow these steps to set the status of RADIUS servers:
