Setting the maximum number of RADIUS request transmission attempts
RADIUS uses UDP packets to transfer data. Because UDP communication is not reliable, RADIUS uses a
retransmission mechanism to improve reliability. A RADIUS request is retransmitted if the NAS does not
receive a server response for the request within the response timeout timer. For more information about
the RADIUS server response timeout timer, see
You can set the maximum number for the NAS to retransmit a RADIUS request to the same server. When
the maximum number is reached, the NAS tries to communicate with other RADIUS servers in active state.
If no other servers are in active state at the time, the NAS considers the authentication or accounting
attempt a failure.
To set the maximum number of RADIUS request transmission attempts:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter RADIUS scheme view.
3. Set the maximum number of RADIUS
request transmission attempts.
Setting the status of RADIUS servers
To control the RADIUS servers with which the device communicates when the current servers are no
longer available, set the status of RADIUS servers to blocked or active. You can specify one primary

•
If the device starts up with initial
settings, the ISP domain name is
included in a username.
•
If the device starts up with the default

is included in a username except for the
predefined RADIUS scheme named

RADIUS server in the system scheme,
