      Hello Kai,

      NMIS only supports a single entry for a Radius server. In most Radius implementations, redundancy is provided by a Radius Proxy or Authenticator; how this is configured will depend on your Radius server.

      For example, with FreeRadius you would handle it using Load Balancing: https://wiki.freeradius.org/config/Load-balancing

      Best,

        Hello Kai,

        Are you wanting to run 2 NMIS polling servers in hot/hot for high availability/disaster recovery? If that's correct, you should consider Opmantek's opHA module; https://opmantek.com/distributed-network-management-system/

        Please let us know if we can help with anything else.

          Hello Mark,

          Thanks for your answer.
          I use radius for NMIS Login.
          I can configure one radius server in Config.nmis by auth_radius_server.
          I need a secondary entry for backup.
