That is right, but the second server (wap_rad) will be used only when
the first one failed, which is not what you need.

A request cannot be proxied to several servers at the same time. This
would break the idea of proxying. The idea is: radiusd waits for the reply
from the remote server and then forwards this reply back to the
requesting NAS. Let's imagine it has proxied the request to
two different servers and these have returned different reply
codes. Which of them should be sent back to the NAS?

You may try to build a proxy chain, where the main server 
proxies its requests to wap_test, and wap_test in turn 
proxies them to wap_rad. In this case accounting information
will be recorded on each server.
