Usage Guidelines
To use this command, you must be in a user group associated with a task group that includes appropriate task
IDs. If the user group assignment is preventing you from using a command, contact your AAA administrator
for assistance.
The default authentication time is 10 seconds, which should allow time for a remote router to authenticate
and authorize the connection and provide a response. However, it is also possible that it will take much less
time than 10 seconds. In such cases, use the ppp timeout authentication command to lower the timeout
period to improve connection times in the event that an authentication response is lost.
The timeout affects connection times only if packets are lost.Note
Although lowering the authentication timeout is beneficial if packets are lost, sending authentication
requests faster than the peer can handle them results in churn and a slower connection time.
