Load balancing of RADIUS

Does anybody know how to load balance radius authentication incoming flow from N clients to M servers through BIG-IP ? we thought of using the "User_Name" information element to set a persistency on the radius authentication session, is it possible to parse it using i-rules ? other solutions ?

 

Thanks for tips

    There are two options.

     

     

    1. persist on source address, no irule is required.

     

    2. write rule to parse Radius/UDP packets, after extracting desired option, do uie persistence. datagram_lb must be enabled in udp profile.
