•Re-authenticate—It will trigger the switch to ask a connected client to restart authentication process.

Configuring 802.1X Parameter
When 802.1X is enabled, you need to configure the parameters for the authentication process that runs between the client and the Cisco SLM2008 switch. The client identity lookup process that runs between the switch and authentication server also needs to be configured. These parameters are described in this section.
