Description: The number of authentication timeouts to this server. After a timeout the client may retry sending to the same server, send to a different server, or give up. A retry to the same server is counted as a retransmit as well as a timeout. A send to a different server is counted as a request as well as a timeout.

What is cienaCesTacacsClientGlobalAuthorizationTimeouts?

This counter tracks command/session authorization requests that timed out waiting on a TACACS+ server, using the same double-counting convention as the authentication timeout counter. Because authorization gates individual CLI commands, a climbing timeout count here is often what users actually experience as the switch hanging when they type a command, well before anyone thinks to check TACACS+ server health. For example, an admin typing 'show running-config' and waiting 10+ seconds for a prompt to return is a common symptom that correlates with this counter rising.
