  1. Go to Services & Profiles > Accounting.
  2. Select the Proxy tab, and then select the zone for which you want to create the AAA server.
  3. Click Create.
    The Create Accounting Service page appears.

    3. Service Protocol: By default, the RADIUS Accounting selected. For more information, see RADIUS Service Options.
    4. Cluster Redundancy: Click the Enable Service for Standby Cluster option to enable cluster redundancy.
  5. Click OK.
You have completed creating a Proxy Accounting AAA server.
