When there are a large amount of users (more than 1000, inclusive), we suggest a
larger value. The following table recommends the ratio of minutes value to the number
of users.
Table 2-35 Recommended ratio of minutes to number of users
Number of users
1 to 99
100 to 499
500 to 999
≥1000
By default, minutes is set to 12 minutes.
III. Configure the RADIUS Server Response Timer
If the NAS receives no response from the RADIUS server after sending a RADIUS
request (authentication/authorization or accounting request) for a period of time, the
NAS resends the request, thus ensuring the user can obtain the RADIUS service. You
can specify this period by setting the RADIUS server response timeout timer, taking into
consideration the network condition and the desired system performance.
Perform the following configurations in RADIUS scheme view.

By default, the response timeout timer for the RADIUS server is set to three seconds.
IV. Configuring the Quiet Time Interval
You can use the following command to set the quiet time interval after which the
primary and secondary RADIUS servers switch over. The functions of the quiet time
interval are as follows:
The switch sends RADIUS packets to the primary RADIUS server.
If the switch affirms that the primary server does not respond, it then sends
RADIUS packets to the secondary RADIUS server.
After each quiet time interval, the switch sets the status of the primary RADIUS
server to active, and sends RADIUS packets to it next time.
Perform the following configuration in RADIUS scheme view.
