times the device which will be authenticator requests for authentication to RADIUS server.
To configure times of authentication request in the hiD 6615 S223/S323, please use the

Configuring Interval of Request to RADIUS Server
For the hiD 6615 S223/S323, it is possible to set the time for the retransmission of pack-
ets to check RADIUS server. If there’s a response from other packets, the switch waits for
a response from RADIUS server during the configured time before resending the request.
To set the interval of request to RADIUS server, use the following command.
Command Mode
Description
dot1x radius-server timeout
<1-
120>
Global
Configures the interval of request to RADIUS server.
1-120: 1-120 seconds (Default value: 1)
You should consider the distance from the server for configuring the interval of requesting
the authentication to RADIUS server. If you configure the interval too short, the authenti-
cation couldn’t be realized. If it happens, you’d better to reconfigure the interval longer.
