RADIUS and LDAP servers

RADIUS and LDAP servers

In an active-passive cluster, only the primary unit processes traffic, so the primary unit communicates with RADIUS or LDAP servers. In a cluster that is operating in active-active mode, subordinate units send RADIUS and LDAP requests to the primary unit over the HA heartbeat link and the primary units routes them to their destination. The primary unit relays the responses back to the subordinate unit.
