Retransmit
Retransmit is the number of times, in the range 1 to 1000, a RADIUS request is
retransmitted to a server that is not responding. If the server has not responded
after the last retransmit it is considered to be dead.
Dead Time
Deadtime, which can be set to a number between 0 to 1440 minutes, and is the
period during which the switch will not send new requests to a server that has
failed to respond to a previous request. This will stop the switch from continually
trying to contact a server that it has already determined as dead.
Setting the Deadtime to a value greater than 0 (zero) will enable this feature, but
only if more than one server has been configured.
