Description
Timeout is the number of seconds, in the range 1 to 1000, to wait for a reply from
a RADIUS server before retransmitting the request.
Retransmit is the number of times, in the range from 1 to 1000; a RADIUS
request is retransmitted to a server that is not responding. If the server has not
responded after the last retransmit, it is considered to be dead.
The Dead Time, which can be set to a number between 0 and 3600 seconds, is
the period during which the switch will not send new requests to a server that has
failed to respond to a previous request. This will stop the switch from continually
trying to contact a server that it has already determined as dead.
Setting the Dead Time to a value greater than 0 (zero) will enable this feature, but
only if more than one server has been configured.
The secret key - up to 63 characters long - shared between the RADIUS server
and the switch.
