Yes, the server does this, but not for only one request. Once server A is detected dead, the accounting request is discarded, no? So the accounting request is not tried on server B. FreeRADIUS needs another accounting-request.
Yes.
With the proposed architecture, When request is discarded, radrelay would not have acct-response, and would therefore try again, this time the FreeRADIUS would fallback to server B and so on. In theory, no Accounting request is lost for the remote severs
Retransmits are the responsibility of the NAS. In this case, radrelay. As I said previously, radrelay doesn't do this in all situations. There may be temporary work-arounds in 1.1.x, but the real solution is to fix radrelay. Alan DeKok. -- http://deployingradius.com - The web site of the book http://deployingradius.com/blog/ - The blog
