load-balance
Enables or disables load balancing among the RADIUS servers in a server
group.
Syntax —
set server group group-name load-balance
{enable | disable}
group-name — Server group name of up to 32 characters.
load-balance enable | disable — Enables or disables load
balancing of authentication requests among the servers in the group.
Defaults — Load balancing is disabled by default.
Access — Enabled.
History —Introduced in MSS Version 3.0.
Usage — You can optionally enable load balancing after assigning the
server group members. If you configure load balancing, MSS sends each
AAA request to a separate server, starting with the first one on the list
and skipping unresponsive servers. If no server in the group responds,
MSS moves to the next method configured with set authentication and
set accounting.
In contrast, if load balancing is not configured, MSS always begins with
the first server in the list and sends unfulfilled requests to each
subsequent server in the group before moving on to the next configured
AAA method.
