PurposeCommand or Action
The default value for the idle timer is 0 minutes.
host-name} test {idle-time minutes |
password password [idle-time minutes]
The valid range is from 0 to 1440 minutes.
| username name [password password
[idle-time minutes]]}
For periodic RADIUS server monitoring, you
must set the idle timer to a value greater than
0.
Note
Specifies the number of minutes before the switch
checks a RADIUS server that was previously
unresponsive.
switch(config)# radius-server
deadtime minutes
Step 3
The default value is 0 minutes.
The valid range is 1 to 1440 minutes.
Exits configuration mode.switch(config)# exit
Step 4
(Optional)
Displays the RADIUS server configuration.
switch# show radius-server
Step 5
(Optional)
Saves the change persistenetly through reboots and
restarts by copying the running configuration to the
startup configuration.
switch# copy running-config
startup-contig
Step 6
This example shows how to configure RADIUS server host 10.10.1.1 with a username (user1) and password
(Ur2Gd2BH) and with an idle timer of 3 minutes and a deadtime of 5 minutes:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# radius-server host 10.10.1.1 test username user1 password Ur2Gd2BH idle-time
3
switch(config)# radius-server deadtime 5
switch(config)# exit
switch# copy running-config startup-config
Configuring the Dead-Time Interval
You can configure the dead-time interval for all RADIUS servers. The dead-time interval specifies the time
that the Cisco Nexus device waits after declaring a RADIUS server is dead, before sending out a test packet
to determine if the server is now alive. The default value is 0 minutes.
When the dead-time interval is 0 minutes, RADIUS servers are not marked as dead even if they are not
responding. You can configure the dead-time interval for a RADIUS server group. See Configuring
RADIUS Server Groups, on page 35.
