I'm doing this with no problem. I have 2 freeradius servers both writing/reading the same dbms
I have split my load up so some NASes use one radiusd as a primary and the other as the secondary. Then reversed that role for other NASes. It gives a nice balance and if one were to fail, they just query the one left standing. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] g] On Behalf Of Sebastian Ganschow Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2008 4:31 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Radius Load-Balancing concept Hi, we're planing to reinstall our Radius servers. Currently we have two servers running, each with an own mysql server for the accounting records. If server 1 fails server 2 takes over. The accounting data is exchange with radrelay, I'm thinking to switch from this fail-over concept to a load-balancing concept and I would like to ask, if this concept would work. I want to install 2 radius servers and a postgres database cluster. Both radius servers will write their accounting data into the same database. Some of our NASes will use the first, the others the second server as primary radius server. If one of the server fails the other server will take over all NASes. Does it work, if both servers will write into the same database? Do I need to set up radrelay to exchange the accounting data between the two servers? Will this concept work in general?
