Use the undo retry command to restore the default.  

The default value for the retry-times argument is 3. 

Note that: 

z 

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.  

z 

The maximum number of retransmission attempts defined by this command refers to the sum of all 

retransmission attempts sent by the device to the primary server and the secondary server. For 

example, assume that the maximum number of retransmission attempts is N and both the primary 

server and secondary RADIUS server are specified and exist, the device will send a request to the 

other server if the current server does not respond after the sum of retransmission attempts 

reaches N/2 (if N is an even number) or (N+1)/2 (if N is an odd number). 

z 

The maximum number of retransmission attempts multiplied by the RADIUS server response 

timeout period cannot be greater than 75.

retry-times: Maximum number of accounting request transmission attempts. It ranges from 1 to 255 and 

defaults to 5. 

Use the retry realtime-accounting command to set the maximum number of accounting request 

transmission attempts.  

Use the undo retry realtime-accounting command to restore the default.
