Console(config)# interface ethernet ext.16

Console(config-if)#dot1x timeout quiet-period 3600

dot1x timeout tx-period

The dot1x timeout tx-periodInterface Configuration mode command sets the number of seconds that the device waits for a response to an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP)-request/identity frame from the client before resending the request.
