re: (ASCEND) unwarranted msgs: backoff q full
Just reboot your TNT(s) and the message should go away.
I had the same message and that occurred only after a failed attempt to
upgrade to 7.0 then downgraded to 2.1.3. The way it was explained to me
(and I cannot remember all specific details) was that there is a buffer
which stores messages destined for the RADIUS server and if that buffer
gets full, this error message is reported to the screen. By rebooting the
TNT, this buffer is refreshed and the message goes away. It is a
non-critical message and it does not indicate any loss of functionality.

I have a stack of (2) TNT's, running 2.1.3.
I am getting many of the typical "backoff Q full, discarding user"
messages via syslog.
However, my radius accounting server is getting and logging the
records just fine, and is also acknowledging them. Below is
a tcpdump capture of the network traffic:
tnt200-79.dialin.buffalo.edu.1677 > diameter.cit.buffalo.edu.radacct: udp
77
diameter.cit.buffalo.edu.radacct > tnt200-79.dialin.buffalo.edu.1677: udp
20 (DF)
tnt200-79.dialin.buffalo.edu.1673 > diameter.cit.buffalo.edu.radacct: udp
77
diameter.cit.buffalo.edu.radacct > tnt200-79.dialin.buffalo.edu.1673: udp
20 (DF)
tnt200-79.dialin.buffalo.edu.1679 > diameter.cit.buffalo.edu.radacct: udp
191
diameter.cit.buffalo.edu.radacct > tnt200-79.dialin.buffalo.edu.1679: udp
20 (DF)
tnt200-79.dialin.buffalo.edu.1679 > diameter.cit.buffalo.edu.radacct: udp
91
diameter.cit.buffalo.edu.radacct > tnt200-79.dialin.buffalo.edu.1679: udp
20 (DF)
Anyone have any idea why I'm getting these syslog messages, or what
I can do to investigate further? Is the radius server replying
(acknowledging) to the right place (originating port of the record on the
TNT)?
