Configuration and operation 5.8 Notes on configuring individual functions ● Authentication timeout Maximum waiting time for the response from the master to an authentication request of the DNP3 CP. Exceeding the wait time is evaluated as an error by the DNP3 CP. In this case, the DNP3 CP generates a security event and sends this to the master.
