Radius accounting

Hi, I saw radius healthchecking was possible. any ideas on how to enable the radius accounting health check on the bigip 9.x? Maybe possible via a script or iRule?

  • Health monitors can be configured with the iControl via the LocalLB::Monitor interface. At this point only the status of health monitors can be queried from within iRules as the status of the Nodes.

    The Radius health monitor (not Radius *accounting* -- that one doesn't exist) is available via UI or CLI. From the UI Main page, select Local Traffic->Monitors->Create...->Type->RADIUS, then enter Name and the desired username, password and secret.

     

     

    The CLI is of the form:

     

     

    b monitor '{ defaults from radius username "" password "" secret "" }'

     

     

     

    Hope this helps,

  • Thanks. I found the radius healthchecking but was looking for the radius accounting health checking.

     

    Radius implementation mostly consist of both the radius authentication and accounting. I have a implementation for that but cannot seem to get the accounting health check working.

    Radius *accounting* health checking doesn't currently exist. It is planned but there is no definite timeframe at the moment.
