Timer - Huawei quidway s3526 series Getting Started

Command Manual - Security
Quidway S3500 Series Ethernet Switches
Because the stopping accounting request concerns account balance and will affect the
amount of charge, which is very important for both the user and ISP, NAS shall make its
best effort to send the message to RADIUS accounting server. Accordingly, if the
message from the switch to RADIUS accounting server has not been responded, the
switch shall save it in the local buffer and retransmit it until the server responds or
discard the messages after transmitting for specified times.
For the related commands, see reset stop-accounting-buffer, radius scheme,
display stop-accounting-buffer.
Example
# Indicate that, for the RADIUS scheme "Huawei", the switch will save the stopping
accounting request packets in the buffer

Parameter
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.
For the related commands, see radius scheme, retry.
