Setting the Back-End Authenticator-to-Host Frame-Retransmission Number

The authentication server notifies the back-end authenticator each time that it receives a specific number
of frames. When the back-end authenticator does not receive this notification after sending the frames,
the back-end authenticator waits a set period of time and then retransmits the frames. You may set the
number of frames that the back-end authenticator retransmits from 1–10 (the default is 2).
