I've also seen cases where the NAS was talking to a remote radius server over shakey/saturated links, causing a lot of radius retransmissions- If the Radius server can't handle starts & stops coming in out of order, then session-limiting based on this will break. In at least a couple of cases things cleaned up by fixing the link. To see if this might be contributing to the problem, compare the count of retransmitted accounting packets between the working and not working Harcs ("show accounting counters"). It -might- be as simple as that. Of course this isn't likely if all the chassis are local.

U>512-393-5300 Unfortunately it is a HiPerArc problem that crept in at a certain release of code. 3Com claims it has been fixed in the newer code but with the problems many folks have had, including myself, with the newer code, some folks are afraid to try it. I plan to try another HiPerArc upgrade soon.
