grpparams radius-auth-retries

Specifies the number of times the group will try to contact a RADIUS authentication server after the first attempt fails. Once the retry limit has been reached, the group will consider the server unavailable. If there is another authentication server configured, the group will then attempt to contact that server.

For example, when a host (iSCSI initiator) attempts to connect to a volume (or a user attempts to log into an administration account), the group will try to contact a RADIUS authentication server. If there is no response from the initial attempt within the time limit specified by the radius-auth-timeout parameter, the group will retry contacting the server the number of times specified by the radius-auth-retries parameter.

To specify RADIUS authentication servers, see grpparams radius-auth-list.
