How to improve Radius Performance

[Tejesh Vijayakumar]

Alan,

I am testing PAP authentication.
 I am following the performance-testing document but achieving not more than 125 auths/sec for 1000users.

Any extra configuration to be done to get 50k auths/sec?


Regards,
Tejesh

  You have *not* said what authentication method you are using.

  For PAP, the server can do 50K auth/s in a normal configuration.
