radius-server login timeout

Use this command to set the global timeout which is how long the device waits for a response from a RADIUS server before declaring a timeout failure.

Use the no form of this command to set the global timeout to its default (1 second).

TELNET client session's default timeout is 60 seconds, so configuring timeout of 60 seconds timeout impacts TELNET client applications, because it cannot be fallback to use the other configured server/group. Hence it is recommended to configure 57 seconds or lesser timeout while using TELNET. This timeout doesn't have an impact on SSH connections.
