State Primary - HP FlexNetwork 7500 Series Command Reference Manual

When SNMP notifications for RADIUS are enabled, the device supports the following notifications
generated by RADIUS:
•
RADIUS server unreachable notification—The RADIUS server cannot be reached. RADIUS
generates this notification if it cannot receive any response to an accounting or authentication
request within the specified RADIUS request transmission attempts.
•
RADIUS server reachable notification—The RADIUS server can be reached. RADIUS
generates this notification for a previously blocked RADIUS server after the quiet timer expires.
•
Excessive authentication failures notification—RADIUS generates this notification when
the number of authentication failures to the total number of authentication attempts exceeds the
specified threshold.
Examples
# Enable the device to send RADIUS accounting server unreachable notifications.

Parameters
accounting: Specifies the primary RADIUS accounting server.
authentication: Specifies the primary RADIUS authentication server.
active: Specifies the active state, the normal operation state.
block: Specifies the blocked state, the out-of-service state.
Usage guidelines
When the RADIUS server load sharing feature is disabled, the device first tries to communicate with
the primary server if the primary server is in active state. If the primary server is unavailable, the
device performs the following operations:
•
Changes the status of the primary server to blocked.
•
Starts a quiet timer for the server.
•
Tries to communicate with a secondary server in active state.
When the quiet timer of the primary server times out, the status of the server automatically changes
to active. If you set the server status to blocked before the quiet timer times out, the server status
cannot change back to active unless you manually set the status to active.
