Interval of Request to RADIUS Server

For the switch, it is possible to set the time for the retransmission of packets to check
RADIUS server. If there's a response from other packets, the switch waits for a response
from RADIUS server during the configured time before resending the request.
Command
dot1x radius-server timeout <1-
120>
You should consider the distance from the server for configuring the interval of requesting
the authentication to RADIUS server. If you configure the interval too short, the authenti-
cation couldn't be realized. If it happens, you'd better to reconfigure the interval longer.
