1.2.15 retry
Syntax
retry retry-times
undo retry
View
RADIUS scheme view
Parameters
retry-times: Maximum number of retransmission attempts, in the range 1 to 20.
Description
Use the retry command to set the maximum number of RADIUS retransmission
attempts.
Use the undo retry command to restore the default.
The default value for the retry-times argument is 3.
Note that:
Because RADIUS uses UDP packets to transmit data, the communication is not
reliable. If the device does not receive a response to its request from the RADIUS
server within the response time-out time, it will retransmit the RADIUS request. If
the number of retransmission attempts exceeds the limit but the device still
receives no response from the RADIUS server, the device regards that the
authentication fails.
The maximum number of retransmission attempts multiplied by the RADIUS
server response timeout period cannot be greater than 75.

Examples
# Set the maximum number of RADIUS request transmission attempts to 5 for RADIUS
scheme radius1.
