</div>Sounds like they are doing something a bit weird J<br>
<br>
If you are planning for multiple LNS's, how will they support that if<br>
they are going to connect directly to just one LNS in your network?<br>
<br>
You need to get them to clarify the whole design end to end. When we<br>
take interconnects with wholesalers we land them on a PE. Multiple<br>
interconnects from the same wholesaler will land on different PEs for<br>
resilience and we will advertise the IPs of our LNS's and RADIUS<br>
servers over BGP to them.<br>
<br>
Then they have the choice, their RADIUS and LAC’s can speak our RADIUS<br>
and LNS devices in any order they like.<br>
<br>
If you just have one or a handful of realms, *@<a href="http://realm1.net" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">realm1.net</a> you can<br>
always tell your wholesaler “my LNS IPs are 1.1.1.1, .2, .3 and .4,<br>
please RR over them all”, then their RADIUS won’t need to speak to<br>
yours.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
James.<br>
