Stack failover scenario
This section describes the stack failover scenario.
The NAS stacking module processes the RADIUS dynamic authorization messages only if the role of module is master.
The NAS standby stacking module processes the retransmitted CoA or DM messages without requiring a chassis reboot, if
the master module fails and the standby module becomes the master.
Configuring replay protection
NAS enables you to configure the replay protection window period.
NAS drops the packets if duplicate packets are received within replay protection window period. The default value is 5 minutes.
Enter the following command to configure replay protection:
replay-prot-window minutes
NAS considers the new replay protection window value from next window period. The range is from 1 to 10 minutes. The default
is 5 minutes.

Rate-limiting RADIUS packets
NAS enables you to allow or reject RADIUS dynamic authorization packets based on the rate-limiting value that you specify.
NAS lets you to configure number of RADIUS dynamic authorization packets allowed per minute. The default value is 30 packets
per minute. NAS discards the packets, if the number of RADIUS dynamic authorization packets in the current interval cross the
configured rate-limit value.
Enter the following command to configure rate-limiting:
rate-limit number
NAS considers the rate limit change value from the next interval period. The range is from 10 to 60 packets per minute. The
default is 30 packets per minute.

Configuring time-out value
You can configure a time-out value for the back-end task to respond to CoA or DM requests.
This setting enables the DAS to determine the amount of time to wait before a back-end response is received. The default value
is 10 minutes.
Enter the following command to configure the time-out value:
da-rsp-timeout value
