This command configures automated tests for configured RADIUS servers. When a test user name is configured for a RADIUS server, the client sends periodic test probes to the server. The RADIUS server responds with a reject message. The receipt of a response is an indication of liveliness of the server. Test probes are sent to server based configured time interval in minutes, idle time.
