Parameters
minutes: Specifies the server quiet period in minutes, in the range of 0 to 255. If you set this argument to
0, when the device attempts to send an authentication or accounting request but the current server is
unreachable, the device sends the request to the next server in active state, without changing the current
server's status. As a result, when the device attempts to send a request of the same type for another user,
it still tries to send the request to the current server because the current server is in active state.
Usage guidelines
The quiet timer controls whether the device changes the status of an unreachable server from active to
blocked and how long the device keeps an unreachable server in blocked state.
If you determine that the primary server is unreachable because the device's port connected to the server
is out of service temporarily or the server is busy, you can set the server quiet period to 0 so that the
device uses the primary server whenever possible.
Set the server quiet timer correctly. Too short a quiet timer might result in frequent authentication or
accounting failures because the device keeps trying to communicate with an unreachable server that is
in active state.
Examples
# Set the quiet timer for the servers to 10 minutes.
