488CHAPTER 15: 802.1X MANAGEMENT COMMANDS

Usage — Normally, the Bonded Auth period needs to be set only if the network has Bonded Auth clients that use dynamic WEP, or use WEP-40 or WEP-104 encryption with WPA or RSN. These clients can be affected by the 802.1X reauthentication parameter or the RADIUS Session-Timeout parameter.

3Com recommends that you try 60 seconds, and change the period to a longer value only if clients are unable to authenticate within 60 seconds.

The bonded authentication period applies only to 802.1X authentication rules that contain the bonded option.

Examples — To set the bonded authentication period to 60 seconds, type the following command:

WX4400# set dot1x bonded-period 60 success: change accepted.
