Example usage:
To configure the response timeout to never time out:
AT-9724TS:4# config authen parameter response_timeout 0
Command: config authen parameter response_timeout 0
S u c c e s s .
A T - 9 7 2 4 T S : 4 #
config authen parameter attempt
Purpose Used to configure the maximum number of times the Switch will accept authentication attempts.
Syntax config authen parameter attempt <int 1-255>
Description This command will configure the maximum number of times the Switch will accept authentication attempts.
Users failing to be authenticated after the set amount of attempts will be denied access to the Switch and will
be locked out of further authentication attempts. Command line interface users will have to wait 60 seconds
