RP[] affects port-less addresses specified in the RV[]
command as well.

• For RA[], each IP address is separated by a semi-colon

;’ and the first IP address will be tried for each new
connection attempt. When the main IP address fails to
respond, the next IP address in the list will be tried, and
so on, if it fails. After the last IP address is tried, the logic
will continue from the first IP address again. A retry
attempt on the main IP address is subject to the RR[]
Reconnect time. After any disconnection, the logic will
always begin with the main IP address as its first attempt.

• For RV[], sets of R3000 addresses are specified based

on an IP range that matches the client’s IP address;
multiple destination R3000 addresses may be used in
each set and will have the same functionality as multiple
destinations specified in the RA[] parameter. Each set is
surrounded by parentheses ‘( )’s, and sets are separated
by commas ‘,’. Any local client IP address that does not
match any set will use the RA[] address. Sample format:

RV[(102.108.1.0-102.108.1.255;1.1.1.1;2.2.2.2),(102.108.2.0-

102.108.2.255;3.3.3.3:222)]

In this example, a client with an IP address of
102.108.1.5 would try to connect to 1.1.1.1 using the
RP[] port (2.2.2.2 as the backup). A client with
192.168.2.15 would try to connect to 3.3.3.3 port 222,
which has no backup.

• Any local address that would end up connecting to

0.0.0.0 will not be observed by the 8e6 Authenticator.
This allows RV[] to allow only specified ranges of IP
addresses to be observed by the 8e6 Authenticator.
