    Two RADIUS servers are supported on an ION device. If you configure only one RADIUS server, then the server is used as the primary RADIUS server. If you have configured two RADIUS servers, then the Priority value of the RADIUS server decides the primary server—lower the priority value, higher the priority.
    RADIUS server with lower priority value is set as primary RADIUS server and the other server as the secondary server. If the priority value is the same for both the servers or not configured, then the first server in the received server list is set as primary and the other server as secondary server.
