Configuring the RADIUS Transmission Retry Count and Timeout Interval for a
Server
By default, a Cisco NX-OS device retries a transmission to a RADIUS server only once before reverting to
local authentication. You can increase this number up to a maximum of five retries per server. You can also
set a timeout interval that the Cisco NX-OS device waits for responses from RADIUS servers before declaring
a timeout failure.
