Set up Windows Radius Server.

Set up Windows Radius Server.

http://www.wikidsystems.com/support/wikid-support-center/how-to/how-to-configure-ias-to-support-two-factor-authentication

I am looking at the link above.
In our environment we have 2 domain controllers. I wan to set up IAS as Radius server and set  up VPN appliance as Radius client.

I want user authentication to be validated by our domain controllers DC1 and DC2.
I wonder whether by ,just authorizing RADIUS server in AD will do the job, or I need somehow to individually add DC1 and DC2 to Radius server.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Thanks

I think the issue I personally experienced was the lack of 3rd party trusted certs for those servers, so it was easier to just use one radius server in my environment.

You could have still used two RADIUS servers if you issued a cert to each IAS from your internal PKI.  I suspect you were using self-signed certs in your scenario?

Don't want to take over this question with my details, but basically radius2 (on dc2) was not authenticating anyone. I read about cert stuff and just killed it. radius1 is my dc1 anyway and it's a small office so if dc1 goes out I've got bigger problems.
