For the primary and second servers (no matter an authentication/authorization or
an accounting server), if the primary server is disconnected to NAS for some fault,
NAS will automatically turn to exchange packets with the second server. However,
after the primary one recovers, NAS will not resume the communication with it at
once, instead, it continues communicating with the second one. When the second
one fails to communicate, NAS will turn to the primary one again. This command
is used to set the primary server to be
