Two userman servers?

Hi i was wondering is it possible to have a backup radius server when using mikrotik radius. So when router1 is down then router 2 takes over.

Yes, just add a second server in the RADIUS tree. If authentication against the first one fails it’ll try the second one.

Fails as in no responce or fails as in user not found. ?

want to use if radius1 is down,then radius 2 is backup.

This will mean that i have to update both router’s userman configs.

If i could update only radius1 and make is sync with radius2 then that would be nice

Fails as in ‘no response’. If any RADIUS server replies with an ACCESS-REJECT no further RADIUS servers will be checked. Only if no reply is received at all will it move to the second configured RADIUS server.

I don’t think you can do that with User Manager.
