Parameter
retry-times: Maximal retransmission times of a buffered stop-accounting request,
ranging from 10 to 65535. By default, the value is 500.
Description
Use the retry stop-accounting command to configure the maximal
retransmission times after a stop-accounting request is saved into the buffer due
to getting no response.
Use the undo retry stop-accounting command to restore the retransmission
times to the default value.
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.
Related command: reset stop-accounting-buffer, radius scheme, display
stop-accounting-buffer.
Example
#Perform the following configuration such that the switch can retransmit a
buffered stop-accounting request to the server configured for the RADIUS scheme
"3Com" for up to 1000 times
