Syntax: aaa port-access supplicant [ethernet] < port-list> (Syntax Continued) [auth-timeout < 1 - 300 >]

Sets the period of time the port waits to receive a challenge from the authenticator. If the request times out, the port sends another authentication request, up to the number of attempts specified by the max-startparameter. (Default: 30 seconds).

[max-start < 1 - 10 >]

Defines the maximum number of times the supplicant port requests authentication. See step 1 on page 57 for a description of how the port reacts to the authenticator response. (Default: 3).

[held-period < 0 - 65535 >]

Sets the time period the supplicant port waits after an active 802.1X session fails before trying to re- acquire the authenticator port. (Default: 60 seconds)

[start-period < 1 - 300 >]

Sets the time period between Start packet retransmis- sions. That is, after a supplicant sends a start packet, it waits during the start-periodfor a response. If no response comes during the start- period, the supplicant sends a new start packet. The max-start setting (above) specifies how many start attempts are allowed in the session. (Default: 30 seconds)

aaa port-access supplicant [ethernet] < port-list> [initialize]

On the specified ports, blocks inbound and outbound traffic and restarts the 802.1X authentication process. Affects only ports configured as 802.1X supplicants.

[clear-statistics]
