Overview 1-3

RADIUS Accounting and ANI/DNIS

Release 3.1 of the NETServer supports the current RADIUS
Accounting Internet Draft. The NETServer can generate
appropriate Code 4 Accounting-Request and Code 5
Accounting-Response messages for properly configured
RADIUS servers.

The NETServer’s RADIUS implementation also supports ANI
and DNIS services.

ICMP Message Logging

If your system uses syslog network accounting, you can
configure the NETServer to send ICMP error messages to the
syslog server.

Multiple Name Servers

Release 3.1 of the NETServer supports up to two name servers.
The first is a primary name server, and the second is a backup
server that is used when the primary name server is
unavailable.

Note:

The NETServer does not support more than one name

service at a time (DNS and NIS cannot both be running).

Randomized Hosts

You can now relieve the burden on frequently-used global
default, port default and RADIUS user table hosts, by
randomizing the selection of the host chosen for user sessions.
When this feature is enabled, a preferred host will be randomly
chosen from among the default and alternate hosts defined
rather than always preferring the default host.
