RE: Review of draft-ietf-radext-status-server-05 (Part II)

Alan said:

"  Say a NAS has two paths to realm FOO.  It can ask each one; can *you*
reach FOO?  The one that answers "yes" has packets sent to it.

  The Status-Server isn't being forwarded.  But the NAS still finds out
the proxies view of the reachability of realm FOO."


[BA] The effectiveness of this will depend on the definition of
"reachability" in this context. For example, does a "yes" mean:

1. "Proxy has realm FOO in its routing table"  OR
2. "Proxy got a response from realm FOO in the last X seconds" OR
3. "Proxy tested reachability to realm FOO as a result of receiving
Status-Server with a realm request and got a response"
