Topic: restarting radius while some users are accessing the Internet

Hello,

I have a radius server running freeradius 1.1.7 under FC8, I would like to know will there be any problem in terms of database update (accounting aspect) when I issue a command 'service radiusd restart' while there are users who have been successfully authorized and browsing the Internet.

Should I disconnect all of them first then restart the service?  If so, please kindly let me know the command that I can use.  My network connection is below:

internet ------ radius server ------ chillispot server ------ wireless users

If I want to disconnect users, should I issue the disconnect command in the chillispot server or at the radius server? what command should I use?

Thanks very much in advance for all comments and suggestions.

nothing problem .

cause radius only wait for update from chilli

if the update come on the restart time , the next update will be received.
