This indicates which method is being used for the authentication retransmission algorithm. standard(1) - this is the legacy Enterasys authentication retransmission algorithm. It is a combination of back off where the highest priority server is always used first for every authentication transaction and round robin where if the highest priority server is unable to respond within the configured timeout period the software immediately moves to the next highest priority server in the list. roundRobin(2) - Each new authentication transaction uses the next highest priority server from the server that was initially used for the transaction prior. After the lowest priority server in the list is used the next transaction will use the highest priority server. stickyRoundRobin(3) - Each new authentication transaction uses the next highest priority server as in roundRobin except when that session is either currently associated with a server already or has been associated with a server in the past. etsysRadiusAuthClientServerStickyMaxSessions and etsysRadiusAuthClientServerStickyCurSessions values are used to determine when previously associated sessions need to be associated with less used servers. This list of enumeration constants is subject to change. This parameter value is maintained across system reboots.
