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 maxretransmit 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.

config radius maxretransmit <1-15>

config radius timeout

Use this command to configure the timeout value (in seconds) after which a request must be
retransmitted to the radius server if no response is received.

Consideration should be given to the maximum delay time when configuring RADIUS
maxretransmit and timeout values. If multiple RADIUS servers are configured, the maxretransmit
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 maxretransmit 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.
