Note:
If more than one RADIUS server has been configured, the device uses the configured priorities of the
available RADIUS servers to select the RADIUS server to be used by the device. As shown in the following
figure, server priority can be changed by dragging the servers into the required order. Servers at the top of the
list have the highest priority.

Managing transaction logging
Accounting gives the ability to track usage, such as user access, the ability to log the data gathered to a database, and the
ability to produce reports on the data gathered.
Although the SmartNA-X does not locally support accounting, you can enable an AAA accounting server running
RADIUS or and have accounting information logged by the AAA server.
