Setting RADIUS Server State
For the primary and secondary servers, if the primary server is disconnected from
NAS because of a fault, NAS will automatically turn to exchange packets with the
secondary server. However, after the primary server recovers, NAS does not resume
communication with the primary server immediately, instead, it continues
communicating with the secondary server. When the secondary server fails to
communicate, NAS returns to the primary server. The following commands can be
used to set the primary server to be active manually, so that NAS can
communicate with it immediately after troubleshooting.
When the primary and second servers are both active or block, NAS sends the
packets to the primary server only.
Perform the following configurations in RADIUS server group view.
By default, the state of each server in RADIUS server group is active.
