Default dhclient.conf "retry" param units.

In "dhclient.conf", what are the time units for "retry" (seconds,
minutes, furlongs per fortnight, etc)

From the man pages:
----- cut here -----
retry time;

The retry statement determines the ...blah blah blah...
..... By default, this is five minutes.
----- cut here -----

so is the default:
retry 5 ;

or
retry 300 ;

FYI : "dhclient -v" => V3.0pl1.
TIA.
