Setting Description
Timeout
Timeout is the number of seconds, in the range 1 to 1000, to wait for a reply
from a RADIUS server before retransmitting the request.
Retransmit
Retransmit is the number of times, in the range 1 to 1000, a RADIUS request
is retransmitted to a server that is not responding. If the server has not
responded after the last retransmit
,
it is considered to be dead.
Deadtime
Deadtime, which can be set to a number between 0 to 1440 minutes, is the
period during which the switch will not send new requests to a server that has
failed to respond to a previous request. This will stop the switch from
continually trying to contact a server that it has already determined as dead.
Setting the Deadtime to a value greater than 0 (zero) will enable this feature,
but only if more than one server has been configured.

The identifier - up to 253 characters long - to be used as attribute 32 in
RADIUS Access-Request packets. If this field is left blank, the NAS-Identifier
is not included in the packet.
