Re: [RADIATOR] Radiator and Load Balancer

This may be the case now, but pretty sure we went down this road YEARS ago and even with BindAddress, packets were still being sourced from the main IP address. In the mailing list archives this argument may exist. I vaguely remember being told by Hugh that it was not possible in Perl at the

Re: [RADIATOR] Radiator and Load Balancer

In my experience this is not the case. It will LISTEN on those addresses for sure. But it’s return packets are always sourced from the primary IP address of the outgoing interface. DSR will work, but the clients will receive a response from an IP address that is not of the configure RADIUS

Re: [RADIATOR] Radiator and Load Balancer

DSR load balancing assumes the real servers know about the load balanced VIP and is generally configured on a loopback. The problem with this I think is that Radiator responds with a source address of where the packet leaves. (at least that’s been my experience). Most clients will probably
