Parameter

retry-times:Specifies the maximum times of real-time accounting request failing to be responded, ranging from 1 to 255. By default, the accounting request can fail to be responded up to 5 times.

Description

Use the retry realtime-accountingcommand to configure the maximum number of retries for real-time accounting requests. Use the undo retry realtime-accountingcommand to restore the maximum number of retries for real-time accounting requests to the default value.

RADIUS server usually checks if a user is online with timeout timer. If the RADIUS server has not received the real-time accounting packet from NAS, it will consider that there is line or device failure and stop accounting. Therefore, it is necessary to disconnect the user at the NAS end and on the RADIUS server synchronously when unexpected failure occurs. The Switch 4500 Series supports a maximum number of times that real-time accounting requests can fail to be responded to. NAS will disconnect the user if it has not received a real-time accounting response from the RADIUS server for the number of specified times.

How is the value of count calculated? Suppose RADIUS server connection will timeout in T and the real-time accounting interval of NAS is t, then the integer part of the result from dividing T by t is the value of count. Therefore, when applied, T is suggested the numbers which can be divided exactly by t.
