(RADIATOR) redundant radius accounting servers

[Martin Koenig]

Hello,

I'm looking for a solution to setup a redundant radius accounting server array.

Scenario:

We have several dump VoIP gateways, and they all generate radius 
accounting-requests. They only support one radius accounting server, so 
redundancy cannot be generated at the gateway itself. We would like to 
misuse a load-balancer to simply double the accounting requests and send 
them to multiple servers. Alternatively we would need to setup a high 
availability radius proxy and double the requests there?

Has anyone got experience with this kind of setup? Real redundancy cannot be 
reached, that is obvious due to the limitation of the gateways, but the 
single point of failure has to be something like 99.999% uptime per year, 
thus a load balancer would be a nice thing. Is such kind of hareware 
available somewhere?

Regards,
Martin
