List,
Is there a way to rate limit radius requests? Whenever the router guy kicks a router full of DSL connections we get a flood of radius accounting messages which overloads the database server causing "There are no DB handles to use!" error messages. While the DB can handle the current load, it can get overrun in certain circumstances. I figure some form of rate limiting causing the radius server to only handle so many requests per second might be the solution to this.
Another question I have is what exactly happens with that error message, does radius retry to insert the accounting record or does it simply drop it?
Thanks,
schu
