Just as a point of reference, I have two radius servers for 14,000 dial-up accounts. Radiusd and named both run on the each of the two boxes. Monitoring the ethernet interface for these units with MRTG for about a year has shown that the combined radius and DNS traffic seldom crosses 56K on either box as an average for the 5 minute sample period. Always have two radius servers. Then you can knock one down for service and not show and outage. -- Scott Lambert lambert@cswnet.com Systems and Security Administrator CSW Net, Inc. ================================================================ Written: Tuesday, October 10, 2000 - 02:48 PM To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
