MX - 802.1X Access policies

[RaphaelL]

Hi ,

https://documentation.meraki.com/MX/Access_Control_and_Splash_Page/MX_Access_Policies_(802.1X)

I think this page is lacking a lot of crucial information. 

1- What happens if you put multiple RADIUS servers ? Is it round-robin ?

2- How is the MX made aware of RADIUS failures / timeout ? Will it go to the next RADIUS server ?

3- Is there a fallback mecanism ? If RADIUS #1 is unreachable and it going to RADIUS #2 , Will it comeback to RADIUS #1 or only switchback if RADIUS #2 comes unreachable ?

I do know most of these answers , but I'm pretty sure that would help a lot of people.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. You can take a look at this document below and let us know if thats helpful.

https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/Encryption_and_Authentication/RADIUS_Failover_and_Retry_Details

That document is for MR , if those behaviors are the same for MXs that would be nice to add the changes to the MX doc. 

Thanks ,
