You should specify a single AuthBy RADIUS with multiple Host entries and the
appropriate Timeouts and Retries:
# this is the configuration on the proxy radiator
# defaults are Retries 3 and RetryTimeout 5
# you can change them to whatever suits
<Realm ....>
<AuthBy RADIUS>
Host second.radius.host
Host third.radius.host
Secret somesecret
Retries 5
RetryTimeout 20
</AuthBy>
</Realm>
Have a look at section 6.25 in the Radiator 2.15 reference manual.
