configure radius-accounting {mgmt-access {primary | secondary} | netlogin {primary | secondary} | index } timeout sec

Description

Configures the timeout interval for RADIUS-Accounting authentication requests.

Syntax Description


mgmt-access	Specifies the switch management RADIUS authentication server.
netlogin	Specifies the network login RADIUS authentication server.
primary	Primary server.
secondary	Secondary server.
`index`	RADIUS server index.
`seconds`	Specifies the number of seconds for authentication requests. Range is 1 to 240 seconds.

Default

The default is 3 seconds.

Usage Guidelines

This command configures the timeout interval for RADIUS-Accounting authentication requests. When the timeout has expired, another authentication attempt will be made. After three failed attempts to authenticate, the alternate server will be used.

The mgmt-access keyword specifies the RADIUS accounting server used for switch management.

The netlogin keyword specifies the RADIUS accounting server used for network login.

If you do not specify the mgmt-access or netlogin keywords, the timeout interval applies to both switch management and netlogin RADIUS accounting servers.

Example

This example configures the timeout interval for RADIUS-Accounting authentication to 10 seconds. After 30 seconds (three attempts), the alternate RADIUS server will be used:

Note

This example assumes the default number of retries of 3.

configure radius-accounting timeout 10
