optimize-retries
Optimizes the number of Authentication retries sent to the AAA server.
When an authentication request is pending for a MIP call at the AGW, if a retry RRQ is received from the
mobile node, the AGW discards the old RRQ and keeps the most recent RRQ. Subsequently when the
authentication succeeds, the AGW forwards the most recent RRQ to the HA. If the authentication fails, the
AGW replies to the MN using the most recent RRQ.
