When using <AuthBy VOLUMEBALANCE>
,
the incoming RADIUS requests are distributed between all the listed hosts
according to the relative values of their BogoMips attributes. BogoMips is
a relative measure of the processing power of that host. A
Host
with a BogoMips rating of 2 receives twice as
many request as one with the default BogoMips rating of 1. If at any time
a proxied request does not receive a reply from a remote server, that
server is marked as unavailable until
FailureBackoffTime
seconds has elapsed. Meanwhile,
that request is retransmitted to the next host due to be used.
The
result of this algorithm is to distribute the load amongst all the
currently operational remote RADIUS servers, according to the relative
values of their BogoMips values. For more information about configuring
the BogoMips parameter, see
Section 3.43.1. BogoMips.
