Note:
z
In practice, you can specify two RADIUS servers as the primary and secondary
accounting servers respectively; or specify one server to function as both. Besides,
because RADIUS uses different UDP ports to receive authentication/authorization
and accounting packets, the port for authentication/authorization must be different
from that for accounting.
z
You can set the maximum number of stop-accounting request transmission buffer,
allowing the device to buffer and resend a stop-accounting request until it receives a
response or the number of transmission retries reaches the configured limit. In the
latter case, the device discards the packet.
z
You can set the maximum number of accounting request transmission attempts on
the device, allowing the device to disconnect a user when the number of accounting
request transmission attempts for the user reaches the limit but it still receives no
response to the accounting request.
z
The IP addresses of the primary and secondary accounting servers cannot be the
same. Otherwise, the configuration fails.
z
Currently, RADIUS does not support keeping accounts on FTP users.
