Chapter 2 IE 3000 Switch Cisco IOS Commands radius-server dead-criteria radius-server dead-criteria Use the radius-server dead-criteria global configuration command to configure the conditions that determine when a RADIUS server is considered unavailable or dead. Use the no form of this command to return to the default settings. radius-server dead-criteria [time seconds [tries number] | tries number] no radius-server dead-criteria [time seconds [tries number] | tries number] Syntax Description time seconds tries number (Optional) Set the time in seconds during which the switch does not need to get a valid response from the RADIUS server. The range is from 1 to 120 seconds. (Optional) Set the number of times that the switch does not get a valid response from the RADIUS server before the server is considered unavailable. The range is from 1 to 100. Defaults The switch dynamically determines the seconds value that is from 10 to 60 seconds. The switch dynamically determines the tries value that is from 10 to 100. Command Modes Global configuration Command History Release 12.2(44)EX Modification This command was introduced. Usage Guidelines We recommend that you configure the seconds and number parameters as follows: • Use the radius-server timeout seconds global configuration command to specify the time in seconds during which the switch waits for a RADIUS server to respond before the IEEE 802.1x authentication times out. The switch dynamically determines the default seconds value that is from 10 to 60 seconds. • Use the radius-server retransmit retries global configuration command to specify the number of times the switch tries to reach the radius servers before considering the servers to be unavailable. The switch dynamically determines the default tries value that is from 10 to 100. • The seconds parameter is less than or equal to the number of retransmission attempts times the time in seconds before the IEEE 802.1x authentication times out. • The tries parameter should be the same as the number of retransmission attempts. Examples OL-13019-01 This example shows how to configure 60 as the time and 10 as the number of tries, the conditions that determine when a RADIUS server is considered unavailable Switch(config)# radius-server dead-criteria time 60 tries 10 You can verify your settings by entering the show running-config privileged EXEC command.
