Parameter Description Range Default
dead-time <minutes> Maximum period, in minutes, that the controller considers
an unresponsive authentication server to be “out of
service”.
This timer is only applicable if there are two or more
authentication servers configured on the controller. If there
is only one authentication server configured, the server is
never considered out of service and all requests are sent to
the server.
If one or more backup servers are configured and a server
is unresponsive, it is marked as out of service for the dead
time; subsequent requests are sent to the next server on
the priority list for the duration of the dead time. If the
server is responsive after the dead time has elapsed, it can
take over servicing requests from a lower-priority server; if
the server continues to be unresponsive, it is marked as
down for the dead time.
0-50 10 minutes
idle-timeout
<1-15300>
Maximum number of minutes after which a client is
considered idle if there is no user traffic from the client.
The timeout period is reset if there is a user traffic. After
this timeout period has elapsed, the controller sends probe
packets to the client; if the client responds to the probe, it is
considered active and the User Idle Timeout is reset (an
active client that is not initiating new sessions is not
removed). If the client does not respond to the probe, it is
removed from the system. If the keyword seconds is not
specified, the value defaults to minutes.
