Abstract
A traffic management device (TMD), system, and processor-readable storage medium directed towards automatically configuring an AAA proxy device (also referred to herein as 'the proxy') to load-balance AAA request messages across a plurality of AAA server devices. In one embodiment the proxy receives an AAA handshake message from an AAA client device. The proxy forwards the handshake message to each of the plurality of server devices and, in reply, receives an AAA handshake response message from each of the plurality of server devices. The proxy extracts attributes from each of the handshake response messages and automatically configures itself based on the extracted attributes. The proxy then load-balances, modifies and/or routes subsequently received AAA request messages based on the extracted attributes.
