1970 CHAPTER 128: RADIUS CONFIGURATION COMMANDS

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. 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.

■When both the primary server and the secondary server are in the state of blocked, you need to set the status of the secondary server to active to use the secondary server for authentication. Otherwise, the switchover will not occur.

■If one server is in the active state while the other is blocked, the switchover will not take place even if the active server is not reachable.

Syntax stop-accounting-buffer enable

undo stop-accounting-buffer enable

View RADIUS scheme view

Parameter None

Description Use the stop-accounting-buffer enable command to enable the device to buffer stop-accounting requests getting no responses.

Use the undo stop-accounting-buffer enable command to disable the device from buffering stop-accounting requests getting no responses.

By default, the device is enabled to buffer stop-accounting requests getting no responses.

Since stop-accounting requests affect the charge to users, a NAS must make its best effort to send every stop-accounting request to the RADIUS accounting servers. For each stop-accounting request getting no response in the specified period of time, the NAS buffers and resends the packet until it receives a response or the number of transmission retries reaches the configured limit. In the latter case, the NAS discards the packet.
