Host Address | The IP address or hostname of the RADIUS server. |
Secret Key | The shared secret key is used to sign RADIUS transactions between the server and its client, as well as to encrypt user-password attributes. |
Throughput Threshold | If throttling has been enabled for the host, this field will show the configured threshold for when requests (UDRs) should be throttled. Throttled UDRs will be routed back into the workflow. For example: 1.000 (which means a maximum of 1.000 requests/second will be forwarded). |
...
Enter the IP address or hostname and secret key for the server in the Host Address and Secret Key fields.
If you want to enable throttling for the host, select the Enable Throttling check box, and then enter the maximum number of UDRs (requests) per second you want the agent to forward in the Throughput Threshold (UDR/s) field.
Note title Note! Ensure that you handle the throttled UDRs in your APL code in the workflow in order to not loose any UDRs.
Click on the Add button and the server will be added in the table containing Radius Servers, and then click on the Close button to close the dialog when you are finished adding hosts.

Retry Count | This setting defines the maximum number of attempts to send. An attempt to send occurs if a response is not received within the Retry Interval time. If you set this to 0, no retries will be made. | ||
Retry Interval | Enter the time interval between repeated attempts to send. In the Retry Interval Time Unit setting you can decide whether if you want to configure this interval in seconds or milliseconds. | ||
Retry Interval Time Unit | Select in which unit it you want to configure the Retry Interval; Seconds or Milliseconds. Seconds is the default setting. | ||
Timeout Resolution (ms) | The agent checks whether retries are to be sent with at regular intervals. Enter the number of milliseconds you want to have between these checks in this field. | ||
Skip MD5 Calculation | Select this checkbox to exclude the use of the MD5 hashing algorithm.
| ||
Identifier Calculation | Select this check box checkbox if you want an identifier to be calculated and appended to the requests automatically. This identifier will be used for correlating requests with answers. As Since the maximum number of pending requests to a specific port is 256, the identifier range will be 0-255. | ||
Error Handling | Select an Error Route to ensure that all rejected packets are routed into the workflow using this route. This is optional. |
