Multiple RADIUS servers can be configured to provide RADIUS redundancy.

1- Select RADIUS from the navigation panel.

2- In the Editing RADIUS client configuration page, select Create new RADIUS server

3- Configure the RADIUS server with these parameters:

Name to recognize the server.
Server IP address is the IP address of the RADIUS server.
Server UDP port is the UDP port of the RADIUS server.
Timeout is the number of milliseconds to wait for a response from the RADIUS server before retrying.
Retries is the number of times to send the same request again when the timeout is reached. See full details on functionality here: CDR redundancy
Server type is the type of RADIUS server this configuration corresponds to. The choices are Accounting for CDR functionality and Authorization for authentication and authorization.
Use polling (Status-Server) dictates if polling with the Status-Server message is supported by this server. When enabled, this option allows the RADIUS client to recognize quickly and efficiently if the RADIUS server is available or not.
Server secret is the passphrase to authenticate the TMG on the RADIUS server.

4- You can configure multiple RADIUS servers to have RADIUS redundancy. Each entry can have different timeouts and retries.
