Server Timeout
Enter a value (between 1 and 300 seconds) to indicate the number of elapsed
seconds causing the switch to time out on a request to the primary or secondary
NAC server.
Server Retries
Enter a value between 1 and 100 to indicate the number of times the switch
attempts to reach the primary or secondary server before giving up.
CAUTION: The server’s Timeout and Retries should be less than what is defined for an
MU’s timeout and retries. If the MU’s time is less than the server’s, a fall back to the
secondary server will not work.
Accounting Server
Address
Enter the IP address of the primary and secondary server acting as the NAC
accounting server.

PAP
PAP - Password Authentication Protocol sends a username and password over a
network to a server that compares the username and password to a table of
authorized users. If the username and password are matched in the table, server
access is authorized.
CHAP
CHAP is an encrypted authentication method based on Microsoft's challenge/
response authentication protocol.
DSCP/TOS
Optionally mark packets with a DiffServ CodePoint (DSCP) in its header. The DSCP
value is stored in the first 6 bits of the Type of Service (ToS) field that is part of the
standard IP header. The DCSP values are associated with a forwarding treatment
called
Per Hop Behaviors (PHB). Service can be provisioned (if necessary) by
assigning a DCSP point code from 1 - 6.
