See the reference manual section "6.0 radiusd" and there the Windows specific options such as -installservice and -servicename. One possibility is to run the instances so that they listen to different AuthPorts and AcctPorts and receive requests directly from NASes. For this you would need to configure the NASes to send requests to different ports. Another possibility is to run one instance (frontend) that proxies requests to multiple backend instances that do the actual authentication. The backend instances need only listen to loopback interface 127.0.0.1 (but different ports). The frontend uses a suitable proxy algorithm (AuthBy ROUNDROBIN, HASHBALANCE, EAPBALANCE) to proxy the incoming requests to backend instances. > Currently the Perl service is only running on a single core out of the 4 > available. That's correct. You need to have multiple instances to utilise all the cores. Thanks!
