RADIUS Server Configuration, Max Number of Retransmits, Timeout Duration, Accounting Mode

Page 400 highlights

M6100 Web Management User Guide 1. 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. Consideration to maximum delay time should be given when configuring RADIUS max retransmit and RADIUS time-out. If multiple RADIUS servers are configured, the max retransmit value on each will be exhausted before the next server is attempted. A retransmit will 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 the sum of (retransmit times time-out) for all configured servers. If the RADIUS request was generated by a user login attempt, all user interfaces will be blocked until the RADIUS application returns a response. 2. In the Timeout Duration field, specify the time-out value, in seconds, for request retransmissions. The valid range is 1 - 30. The default value is 5. Consideration to maximum delay time should be given when configuring RADIUS max retransmit and RADIUS time-out. If multiple RADIUS servers are configured, the max retransmit value on each will be exhausted before the next server is attempted. A retransmit will 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 the sum of (retransmit times time-out) for all configured servers. If the RADIUS request was generated by a user login attempt, all user interfaces will be blocked until the RADIUS application returns a response. 3. From the Accounting Mode menu, select whether the RADIUS accounting mode is enabled or disabled on the current server. 4. Use RADIUS Attribute 4 to enable or disable RADIUS attribute 4. Default value is Disable. 5. The Radius Attribute 4 Value is an optional field and can be seen only when Radius attribute 4 Mode is enabled. It takes an IP address value in the format (xx.xx.xx.xx). Field Current Server Address Number of Configured Authentication Servers Number of Configured Accounting Servers Number of Named Authentication Server Groups Number of Named Accounting Server Groups Description The Address of the current server. This field is blank if no servers are configured. Displays the number of configured Authentication RADIUS servers. The value can range from 0 to 32. Displays the number of RADIUS Accounting Servers configured. The value can range from 0 to 32. Displays the number of Named RADIUS server Authentication groups configured. Displays the number of Named RADIUS server Accounting groups configured. RADIUS Server Configuration Use the RADIUS Server Configuration page to view and configure various settings for the current RADIUS server configured on the system. Managing Device Security 400

1.
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.
Consideration to maximum delay time should be given when configuring RADIUS max
retransmit and RADIUS time-out. If multiple RADIUS servers are configured, the max
retransmit value on each will be exhausted before the next server is attempted. A
retransmit will 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 the sum of (retransmit times time-out) for
all configured servers. If the RADIUS request was generated by a user login attempt, all
user interfaces will be blocked until the RADIUS application returns a response.
2.
In the
Timeout Duration
field, specify the time-out value, in seconds, for request
retransmissions. The valid range is 1 - 30. The default value is 5.
Consideration to maximum delay time should be given when configuring RADIUS max
retransmit and RADIUS time-out. If multiple RADIUS servers are configured, the max
retransmit value on each will be exhausted before the next server is attempted. A
retransmit will 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 the sum of (retransmit times time-out) for
all configured servers. If the RADIUS request was generated by a user login attempt, all
user interfaces will be blocked until the RADIUS application returns a response.
3.
From the
Accounting Mode
menu, select whether the RADIUS accounting mode is
enabled or disabled on the current server.
4.
Use
RADIUS Attribute 4
to enable or disable RADIUS attribute 4. Default value is Disable.
5.
The
Radius Attribute 4 Value
is an optional field and can be seen only when Radius
attribute 4 Mode is enabled. It takes an IP address value in the format (xx.xx.xx.xx).
Field
