adius-server dead-criteriaChapter 2Catalyst 3750-E and 3560-E Switch Cisco IOS Commandsradius-server dead-criteriaUse the radius-server dead-criteria global configuration command on the switch stack or on astandalone switch to configure the conditions that determine when a RADIUS server is consideredunavailable 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 Descriptiontime secondstries number(Optional) Set the time in seconds during which the switch does not need to get a validresponse 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 fromthe RADIUS server before the server is considered unavailable. The range is from 1 to100.DefaultsThe 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 ModesGlobal configurationCommand HistoryRelease12.2(35)SE2ModificationThis command was introduced.Usage GuidelinesWe recommend that you configure the seconds and number parameters as follows:• Use the radius-server timeout seconds global configuration command to specify the time inseconds during which the switch waits for a RADIUS server to respond before the IEEE 802.1xauthentication times out. The switch dynamically determines the default seconds value that is from10 to 60 seconds.• Use the radius-server retransmit retries global configuration command to specify the number oftimes 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 timein seconds before the IEEE 802.1x authentication times out.• The tries parameter should be the same as the number of retransmission attempts.ExamplesThis example shows how to configure 60 as the time and 10 as the number of tries, the conditions thatdetermine when a RADIUS server is considered unavailableSwitch(config)# radius-server dead-criteria time 60 tries 10You can verify your settings by entering the show running-config privileged EXEC command.2-456Catalyst 3750-E and 3560-E Switch Command ReferenceOL-9776-08
