Proxy Forwarding

A SonicWall network security appliance acting as a RADIUS accounting server can proxy-forward requests to up to four other RADIUS accounting servers for each network access server (NAS). Each RADIUS accounting server is separately configurable for each NAS.

To avoid the need to re-enter the configuration details for each NAS, SonicOS allows you to select the forwarding for each NAS from a list of configured servers.

The proxy forwarding configuration for each NAS client includes timeouts and retries. How to forward requests to two or more servers can be configured by selecting these options:

  • try the next server on a timeout
  • forward each request to all the servers
