4.4.2 RADIUS
Radius Server — In this situation, need a Radius server in the network, the normal topologies as below
4.4.2.1 RADIUS Configuration
This page is to configure the RADIUS server connection session parameters.
。 Max Number of Retransmits - The value of the maximum number of times a request packet is retransmitted. The
valid range is 1 - 15. Consideration to maximum delay time should be given when configuring RADIUS
maxretransmit and RADIUS timeout. 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 timeout 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 timeout) 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.
。 Timeout Duration (secs) - The timeout value, in seconds, for request retransmissions. The valid range is 1 - 30.

。 Accounting Mode - Selects if the RADIUS accounting mode is enabled or disabled.
。 Non-Configurable Data
。 Current Server IP Address - The IP address of the current server. This field is blank if no servers are configured.
。 Number of Configured Servers - The number of RADIUS servers that have been configured. This value will be in
the range of 0 and 3.
