Usage
Information
When you configure the dot1x server-timeout value, take into account the
communication medium used to communicate with an authentication server and the number of
RADIUS servers configured. Ideally, the dot1x server-timeout value (in seconds) is
based on the configured RADIUS-server timeout and retransmit values and calculated
according to the following formula:
dot1x server-timeout
seconds
> (radius-server
retransmit
seconds
+ 1) * radius-server timeout
seconds
.
Where the default values are as follows: dot1x server-timeout (30 seconds), radius-
server retransmit (3 seconds), and radius-server timeout (5 seconds).
For example:
FTOS(conf)#radius-server host 10.11.197.105 timeout 6
FTOS(conf)#radius-server host 10.11.197.105 retransmit 4
FTOS(conf)#interface tengigabitethernet 2/23
FTOS(conf-if-te-2/23)#dot1x server-timeout 40
