Multi-Radius PPPoE Authentication

Thu Jul 01, 2004 8:59 am

G'day there.

Is it possible to authenticate PPPoE against (and account on) more then one radius server?

We have 3 different offices, each with their own independant database and radius server (we do this for security, and statistical reasons (franchises)).

Can I tell the rOS to check all 3 servers for PPPoE information?

You can use RADIUS proxying instead. Id est, your RADIUS server will forward auth requests not contained in its database to a parent level RADIUS or to a RADIUS proxy server.
