When the real-time accounting interval on the device is zero, the device will send online user accounting
information to the RADIUS accounting server at the real-time accounting interval configured on the server
(if any) or will not send online user accounting information.
Different real-time accounting intervals impose different performance requirements on the NAS and the
RADIUS server. A shorter interval helps achieve higher accounting precision but requires higher
performance. Use a longer interval when there are a large number of users (1000 or more).

Examples
# Set the real-time accounting interval to 51 minutes for RADIUS scheme radius1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] radius scheme radius1
[Sysname-radius-radius1] timer realtime-accounting 51
timer response-timeout (RADIUS scheme view)
Syntax
timer response-timeout seconds
undo timer response-timeout
View
RADIUS scheme view
Default level
2: System level
Parameters
seconds: RADIUS server response timeout period in seconds, in the range 1 to 10.
Description
Use the timer response-timeout command to set the RADIUS server response timeout timer.
Use the undo timer command to restore the default.
By default, the RADIUS server response timeout period is 3 seconds.
If a NAS receives no response from the RADIUS server in a period of time after sending a RADIUS
request (authentication/authorization or accounting request), it has to resend the request so that the user
has more opportunity to obtain the RADIUS service. The NAS uses the RADIUS server response timeout
timer to control the transmission interval.
A proper value for the RADIUS server response timeout timer can help improve the system performance.
Set the timer based on the network conditions.
