The Quiet-period is the time the authenticator (the IC35160) will wait, if the client is not successfully authenticated, before allowing the client to try again. The default is set to 60 seconds. To adjust the quiet- period, type e in the Constant Configuration Menu.

The Tx-period is the time the authenticator will wait, while waiting for response to identity request, before retransmitting the identity request message. The default is set to 30 seconds. To adjust the Tx-period, type t in the Constant Configuration Menu.

The Supplicant-timeout is the time the authenticator must wait before determining that timeout is occurred while waiting for client response. The default is set to 30 seconds. To adjust the Supplicant-timeout, type p in the Constant Configuration Menu.

The Server-timeout is the time the authenticator must wait before determining that timeout is occurred while waiting for the authentication server response. The default is set to 30 seconds. To adjust the Server- timeout, type s in the Constant Configuration Menu.

The MaxReq is the maximum number of times used to re-transmit a request message to the client before it times out. The default value is 2 times. To adjust the MaxReq value, type m in the Constant Configuration Menu.

The ReAuthMax is the number of re-authentication attempts that are permitted before the authorized client becomes unauthorized. The default value is 2 attempts. To adjust the ReAuthMax value, type a in the Constant Configuration Menu.

The ReAuth-period is the time used by authenticator to determine when re-authentication of the client takes place. The default is set to 3600 seconds. To adjust the ReAuth-period, type r in the Constant Configuration Menu.
