Setting the MAC authentication server timeout timer
MAC authentication starts the server timeout timer when the device sends an authentication request to a RADIUS server. If the device does not receive any response from the RADIUS server within the timeout timer, the device regards the server unavailable. If the timer expires during MAC authentication, the client cannot access the network.
