40.4.9 Setting Timers Regarding TACACS Server
I. Setting the response timeout timer
Since TACACS+ is implemented on the basis of TCP, server resp onse timeout or TCP
timeout may terminate the connection to the TACACS server.
Perform the following configuration in TACACS+ view.
Table 40-35 Set the response timeout timer
Operation Command
Set the response timeout time timer response-timeout seconds
Restore the default setting undo timer response-timeout
The default response timeout timer is set to 5 seconds.
II. Setting the quiet timer for the primary TACACS server
Perform the following configuration in TACACS+ view.
Table 40-36 Set the quiet timer for the primary TACACS server
Operation Command
Set the quiet timer for the primary TACACS server timer quiet minutes
Restore the default setting undo timer quiet
The timer quiet command is used to make the switch ignore users' requests for server
within the time configured in this command in case the communication between the
switch and the server is terminated. In that case, the switch can send users' requests to
the server only after it has waited a time no less than the time configured with this
command for the communication to be resumed.
By default, the primary TACACS server must wait five minutes before it can resume the
active state. The time ranges from 1 to 255.
III. Setting a realtime accounting interval
The setting of real-time accounting interval is necessary to real-time accounting. After
an interval value is set, the NAS transmits the accounting information of online users to
the TACACS accounting server periodically.
Perform the following configuration in TACACS+ view.
