Send RADIUS reply immediately without waiting for pipeline completion

reply

Sends the RADIUS reply immediately without waiting for the rest of the pipeline to complete. The pipeline continues executing after the reply is sent, allowing post-reply processing such as logging, dynamic authorization requests, or other asynchronous tasks.

Syntax

reply;

Example: Quick Accounting Acknowledgment

accounting {
    # Accept the accounting request
    accept;

    # Send reply immediately to acknowledge the accounting request
    reply;

    # Following actions run after the reply is sent
    # The client does not wait for these to complete
    backend {
        name "SQL";
        query "INSERT_ACCOUNTING";
    }
}
