Chapter 2 Setting Up BBSM Hotspot

Feature Considerations

Administrators can configure multiple RADIUS accounting servers, which provides redundancy in case the primary RADIUS server is not responding. As with RADIUS authentication servers, each server is configured with a ranking. BBSM Hotspot attempts to send accounting packets to accounting servers until an accounting response packet is successfully received. For each server, BBSM Hotspot attempts to send accounting request packets up to three times if the server fails to respond.

Table 2-11shows the RADIUS attributes and the packets in which they are sent from the BBSM Hotspot server to the RADIUS server. Table 2-12describes these attributes.
