Hi Mdussart,

 

Would that be possible ?

 

Everything is possible with iRules. The more interesting question would be at which price tag... ;-)

 

To become able to make any recommendations, I think I need to understand your scenario slightly better.

 

1.) Do you need just a VIP to load balance the incomming Radius Sessions to a pool of equally configured NPS servers? This will be easy...

 

2.) Do you need a VIP to parse, rewrite or manipulate the incomming RADIUS requests an forward them based on certain request information (e.g. Realms) to multiple independent NPS servers?

 

Cheers, Kai
