The RADIUS Page contains the following fields:

Timeout for Reply — Defines the amount of time (in seconds) the device waits for an answer from the RADIUS server before retrying the query, or switching to the next server. Possible field values are 1-30.

Dead Time — Defines the default amount of time (in minutes) that a RADIUS server is bypassed for service requests. The range is 0-2000.

Key String — Defines the default key string used for authenticating and encrypting all RADIUS-communica- tions between the device and the RADIUS server. This key must match the RADIUS encryption.

Source IP Address — Defines the default IP address of a device accessing the RADIUS server.
