Abstract
The method and system may determining whether an authentication function operating on an authentication node on a network has degraded performance such as when the traffic is being partially throttled. In response to determining that the authentication function operating on the authentication node on a network is being partially throttled, a re-direct message may be communicated to at least one edge device on the network that requests of the authentication function on the authentication node be re-directed to a different authentication node.
