seconds: RADIUS server response timeout timer, ranging from 1 to 10 and measured in
seconds. By default, the value is 3.
Description
Using timer command, you can configure RADIUS server response timer. Using undo
timer command, you can restore the default value of the timer.
After RADIUS (authentication/authorization or accounting) request packet has been
transmitted for a period of time, if NAS has not received the response from RADIUS
server, it has to retransmit the message to guarantee RADIUS service for the user. The
period taken is called RADIUS server response timeout time, which is controlled by the
RADIUS server response timeout timer in the switch system. This command is used to
set this timer.
Setting a suitable timer according to the network situation will enhance the system
performance.
