+# rlm_radius
+
+## Multiple connections
+
+rlm_radius_udp.c now has one connection, in `c->active`, which is an
+`fr_dlist_t`.  That needs to be moved to a heap, ordered by (1)
+most-recently active (i.e. most recent sent packet that had a
+response), followed by (2) number of free IDs.
+
+When we need a connection, we pop it from the heap.  Allocate an ID,
+and push it back to the heap.
+
+When we get a reply, we grab the connection, check / update
+`last_sent_with_reply`, free the ID (unless it's Status-Server ping
+checks), and extract / insert the connection back into the heap.
+
+When the packet times out, we just free the ID (unless it's
+Status-Server ping checks), and extract / insert the connection back
+into the heap.
+
+We need to extract / insert because it's location may have changed...
+
+We *probably* want to keep one connection "full", if at all possible.
+i.e. the heap should prefer connections with *fewer* free IDs.
+... unless we're using extended ID, in which was we always pick an
+active connection.  i.e. one that's writable.
+
+The "full" connections should be on a *separate* heap, or maybe a
+`fr_dlist_t`.  The extract / insert connection work needs to be done
+in it's own function, because it's mostly magic, and needs to be done
+in multiple places.
+
+## Packet retransmission timers
+
+Via similar code to v3.  See references to "jitter" and "mrt / irt /
+mrc" in process.c in v3.
+
+## Connection status management
+
+Mark a connection live / dead / zombie based on packet retransmission
+timers.  Set / do Status-Server checks as necessary.
+
+
+## Type = Access-Request checking
+
+Which (if set) limits the outbound packet types mainly so that we can
+fail int the module instead of not getting a reply from the home
+server and it mirrors the old configuration.
+
+This also allows us to parse "Access-Request { ... }" sub-sections
+only if there's an Access-Request.  i.e. we only get the debug output
+for the various timers if they're needed.
+
+see `rlm_radius.h`, retransmission intervals are in:
+
+`rlm_radius_retry_t    packets[FR_MAX_PACKET_CODE];`
+
+## status_check = Status-Server
+
+add status_check = Status-Server or Access-Request, ala old code
+
+The main issue here is the ID allocation... If this is set, then we
+need to reserve one ID via `rr_track_alloc()` for the status-server
+check.  Then use that ID if there are no responses to packets.
+
+We should also allow `status_check = auto`, which picks it up from the
+list of allowed packet types.  We then need to require config for
+username / password, for Access-Request, and just username for
+Accounting-Request.
+
+## Replication (i.e. not proxying)
+
+allow for "no reply" proxying, where we don't care about getting the reply
+i.e. we still drain the socket, we just don't do anything with the replies
+
