    Hi @Henry Niekoop · Thank you for reaching out.

    In order to increase timeout settings MFA on NPS server, you need to go to:

    Server Manager > Tools > Network Policy Server > In the NPS (Local) console, expand RADIUS Clients and Servers, and select Remote RADIUS Server > In the middle pane, go to SERVER GROUP Properties > Edit > Under the Load Balancing tab, configure below settings:

    Thanks but we want to change it for 1 network policy only. We do not want it to affect other policies.

    What is the default timeout threshold? I wonder if it should be changed on the Meraki appliance.
