Maximum number of Re-transmissions
This is the maximum number of times that the router will re-
transmitt to the device being called after getting no response from
the device before giving up. Generally, 15 retries should be
sufficient for most devices and networks. However, a larger
number of retries could be necessary to compensate for congested
networks or slow devices. How you set this option depends
somewhat on how you set the RE-Transmission Timeout setting
above. Generally, if the Re-Transmission Timeout is set to 1 or 2
seconds, then you would likely not need to set this option to any
more than 30 retires -- beyond which there may be a problem that
needs attention (as described under Re-Transmission Timeout
above). This option can in fact be set to as high as 99 retires.
However, such a setting is far in excess of what would be
considered the norm. Consider, for instance, that with just a 1
second timeout and 30 retries, the user might wait a total of a half a
minute while the router attempts to get a response from the remote
device.
