How to Configure the Global Default Timeout
Use this command to define the global default timeout interval for the server hosts. This
default timeout interval can be overridden for a specific server host by explicitly configuring
a different timeout interval for that server host.
Options
The following options are available:
•
timeout interval
— default time in seconds that the server waits for a reply from the server host
before timing out.
–
Default = 5 seconds
How to Define the Global Default Timeout
Step 1
From the SCE(config)# prompt, type
tacacs-server timeout
timeout-interval
and press
Enter
.
How to Clear the Global Default Timeout
Step 1
From the SCE(config)# prompt, type
no tacacs-server timeout
and press
Enter
.
No global default timeout interval is defined. Each server host may still have a specific
timeout interval defined. However, any server host that does not have a timeout interval explicitly
defined (uses the global default timeout interval) is now configured to a five second timeout interval.
