3.Web authentication cannot be configured on trunk ports.

Configuring Web Authentication

Web authentication is configured on a per-port basis, however there are four configurable parameters that apply globally to all ports on the switch.

Command Attributes

•System Authentication Control – Enables Web Authentication for the switch. (Default: Disabled)

•Session Timeout – Configures how long an authenticated session stays active before it must re-authenticate itself. (Default: 3600 seconds; Range: 300-3600 seconds)

•Quiet Period – Configures how long a host must wait to attempt authentication again after it has exceeded the maximum allowable failed login attempts. (Default: 60 seconds; Range: 1-180 seconds)

•Login Attempts – Configures the amount of times a supplicant may attempt and fail authentication before it must wait the configured quiet period. (Default: 3 attempts; Range: 1-3 attempts)
