State Secondary - H3C s3100 series Command Manual

When the switch fails to communicate with the primary server due to some server trouble, the
switch will turn to the secondary server and exchange messages with the secondary server.
After the primary server remains in the block state for a set time (set by the timer quiet command),
the switch will try to communicate with the primary server again when it receives a RADIUS request.
If it finds that the primary server has recovered, the switch immediately restores the communication
with the primary server instead of communicating with the secondary server, and at the same time
restores the status of the primary server to active while keeping the status of the secondary server
unchanged.
When both primary and secondary servers are in the active or block state, the switch sends
messages only to the primary server.

accounting, secondary accounting.
