When failing to communicate with a RADIUS sever, the subscriber is failed once all of the configured
RADIUS servers have been exhausted, or once the configured number of maximum transmissions is reached.
For example, if three servers are configured and if the configured max-retries is 3 and max-transmissions is
12, then the primary server is tried four times (once plus three retries), the secondary server is tried four
times, and then a third server is tried four times. If there is a fourth server, it is not tried because the
maximum number of transmissions (12)has been reached.
