Gents,
I've been thru the last 6 months of archives, and didn't find anything quite like
what's happening to me when I'm trying to use my AddressAllocator SQL setup.
Issue: Client wants to be able to have "hot standby" MAX 4000 chassis in facility
where the PRIs can be moved from one MAX to another in case of failure.
I figure using AddressAllocator SQL will eliminate the needs to have an IP pool
defined on each of the hot standby chassis, thereby making much more efficient use of
our Pool IP Space.
Anyhow... AddressAllocator does not seem to run for any client who should be getting
a DynIP from the SQL pool. The max takes the call, tries to authenticate, is not
given an IP address, and disconnects the call.
My test max works fine with and without Allocator configured if it is set with a pool
defined internally.
I have removed the internal pool information, changed the Answer profile to state
"Assign Addr=No", and still when it's set with no pool, and Allocator is enabled, no
IP is even queried from the database in RADPOOL to be replied back to the NAS.
The log shows nothing in regards to RADPOOL table except for the reclaim checks during
startup and every reclaim interval. It also shows nothing in regards to AuthBy
DYNADDRESS or AddressAllocator.
Here is my config file: Please tell me there is a simple error in the way it's been
constructed, because I've given myself a monster headache trying to figure this one
out. :)
As always, I maintain that Radiator should win an award as best software of the new
millenium or something... I have nothing but good things to say about it to my
collegues. The only problems really are that sometimes I cannot seem to speak its
language properly. :)
cheers,
