Configuring Multiple Remote Servers
All of the sites described so far in this chapter have used a single server for authentication and
authorization; either the local RADIUS server or a remote LDAP server.
You can configure multiple remote servers to use the same Service, or multiple remote servers to use
different Services.
Figure 5-2 shows how to use multiple servers for authentication and authorization,
and how to employ a script to determine which one to use.
