Abstract
In general, techniques are described for supporting interchassis redundancy (ICR) by a plurality of network access servers (NASes) that are members of an ICR. For example, techniques may be used to associate, within a RADIUS server, multiple NAS identifiers for the NASes with a single NAS identifier alias. The RADIUS server is configured to handle RADIUS protocol messages from any member of the ICR cluster as though the RADIUS protocol messages issued from a single NAS having the NAS identifier alias.
