Retry Realtime-Accounting - 3Com 5500G-EI Command Reference Manual

RADIUS Protocol Configuration Commands 387
RADIUS server has been disconnected and it will transmit request packet to other
RADIUS servers.
Setting a suitable retry-time according to the network situation can speed up the
system response.

Example
To set to retransmit the RADIUS request packet no more than 5 times via the server
3Com in the RADIUS scheme, enter the following:
<SW5500>system-view
System View: return to User View with Ctrl+Z.

Parameter
Specifies the maximum times of real-time accounting request
retry-times
:
failing to be responded, ranging from 1 to 255. By default, the accounting request
can fail to be responded up to 5 times.
Description
Use the command to configure the maximum
retry realtime-accounting
number of retries for real-time accounting requests. Use the
undo retry
command to restore the maximum number of retries for
realtime-accounting
real-time accounting requests to the default value.
RADIUS server usually checks if a user is online with timeout timer. If the RADIUS
server has not received the real-time accounting packet from NAS, it will consider
that there is line or device failure and stop accounting. Therefore, it is necessary to
disconnect the user at the NAS end and on the RADIUS server synchronously when
unexpected failure occurs. The Switch 5500G-EI Family supports a maximum
number of times that real-time accounting requests can fail to be responded to.
NAS will disconnect the user if it has not received a real-time accounting response
from the RADIUS server for the number of specified times.
How is the value of count calculated? Suppose RADIUS server connection will
timeout in T and the real-time accounting interval of NAS is t, then the integer
part of the result from dividing T by t is the value of count. Therefore, when
applied, T is suggested the numbers which can be divided exactly by t.
