disabled

Specifies that

 

 

reauthentication by the

 

 

client is not required after

 

 

the initial authentication.

 

 

Reauthentication is only

 

 

required if there is a change

 

 

to the status of the link

 

 

between the supplicant and

 

 

the switch or the switch is

 

 

reset or power cycled.

txperiod

Sets the number of seconds that the switch waits for a

 

response to an EAP-request/identity frame from the

 

client before retransmitting the request. The default

 

value is 30 seconds. The range is 1 to 65,535 seconds.

reauthperiod

Enables periodic reauthentication of the client, which

 

is disabled by default. The default value is 3600

 

seconds. The range is 1 to 65,535 seconds.

supptimeout

Sets the switch-to-client retransmission time for the

 

EAP-request frame. The default value for this

 

parameter is 30 seconds. The range is 1 to 600

 

seconds.

 

servertimeout

Sets the timer used by the switch to determine

servtimeout

authentication server timeout conditions. The default

 

value is 30 seconds. The range is 1 to 65,535 seconds.

 

The parameters are equivalent.

maxreq

Specifies the maximum number of times that the

 

switch retransmits an EAP Request packet to the client

 

before it times out the authentication session. The

 

range is 1 to 10 retransmissions and the default is 2.

ctrldirboth

Specifies how the port is to handle ingress and egress

 

broadcast and multicast packets when in the

unauthorized state. When a port is set to the Authenticator role, it remains in the unauthorized state until the client logs on by providing a username and password combination. In the unauthorized state, the port will only accept EAP packets from the client. All other ingress packets that the port might receive from the client, including multicast and broadcast traffic, is discarded until the supplicant has logged on.
