Configuring the RADIUS Protocol 229
RADIUS server, it has to retransmit the request to guarantee RADIUS service for the
user.
You can use the following command to set response timeout timer of RADIUS
server.
Perform the following configurations in RADIUS scheme view.

OperationCommand
Set response timeout timer of RADIUS servertimer seconds
Restore the response timeout timer of RADIUS server to default valueundo timer
By default, timeout timer of RADIUS server is 3 seconds.
II. Setting a Real-time Accounting Interval
To implement real-time accounting, it is necessary to set a real-time accounting
interval. After the attribute is set, NAS will transmit the accounting information of
online users to the RADIUS server regularly.
You can use the following command to set a real-time accounting interval.
Perform the following configurations in RADIUS scheme view.
Table 2-33 Setting a real-time accounting interval
OperationCommand
Set a real-time accounting intervaltimer realtime-accounting minutes
Restore the default value of the intervalundo timer realtime-accounting
minute specifies the real-time accounting interval in minutes. The value shall be a
multiple of 3.
The value of minute is related to the performance of NAS and RADIUS server. The
smaller the value is, the higher the performances of NAS and RADIUS are required.
When there are a large amount of users (more than 1000, inclusive), we suggest a
larger value. The following table recommends the ratio of minute value to the
number of users.
