Could someone suggest the best way to do it?  I am comfortable with using
ldirector as the load balancer, but I am not sure how to do the
"check-alive" for freeradius within ldirector.

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.


Pete,

My recollection is that when this has been discussed in the past the consensus was that there's no advantage to running FreeRADIUS in an HA environment since RADIUS already supports redundant servers.

I would have to dispute that. We've seen NASes across the range (Cisco, 3Com, Extreme) fail to move to the backup/secondary radius server they've got configured.

Sad, but true.
