 RADIUS 
 Radius Configuration
The Current Server IP Address field is blank if no servers are configured (see 
268). The switch supports up to three configured RADIUS 
servers. If more than one RADIUS servers is configured, the current server is the server 
configured as the primary server. If no servers are configured as the primary server, the 
current server is the most recently added RADIUS server.
8. 
In the Max Number of Retransmits field, specify the value of the maximum number of 
times a request packet is retransmitted to the RADIUS server. 
The valid range is 1 – 15. The default value is 4.
Give consideration to maximum delay time when configuring RADIUS maximum 
retransmits and RADIUS time-outs. If multiple RADIUS servers are configured, the 
maximum retransmit value on each is exhausted before the next server is attempted. A 
retransmit does not occur until the configured time-out value on that server has passed 
without a response from the RADIUS server. Therefore, the maximum delay in receiving 
a response from the RADIUS application equals retransmit times time-out for all 
configured servers. If the RADIUS request was generated by a user login attempt, all 
user interfaces are blocked until the RADIUS application returns a response.
9. 
In the Timeout Duration field, specify the time-out value, in seconds, for request 
retransmissions.
