Quiet Period (secs)

Configures the quiet period for the selected port. This command sets the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the authenticator state machine on this port to define periods of time during which it will not attempt to acquire a supplicant. The quiet period is the period for which the authenticator does not attempt to acquire a supplicant after a failed authentication exchange with the supplicant. The quiet period range is 0 to 65535. A quiet period value of 0 means that the authenticator state machine will never acquire a supplicant. The default value is 60.
