on the same RADIUS server are configured for the same service, for example, accounting, the second host
entry configured acts as an automatic switchover backup to the first one. Using this example, if the first host
entry fails to provide accounting services, the network access server tries the second host entry configured
on the same device for accounting services. (The RADIUS host entries are tried in the order they are configured.)

Examples
The following example shows how to use two different host entries on the same RADIUS server that are
configured for the same services—authentication and accounting. The second host entry configured acts as
switchover backup to the first one.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# aaa group server radius group1
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-sg-radius)# server 1.1.1.1 auth-port 1645 acct-port 1646
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-sg-radius)# server 2.2.2.2 auth-port 2000 acct-port 2001
