4.5.2.2Configuring the Interval of Re-Authentication

RAIDIUS server contains the database about the user who has access right. The data- base is real-time upgraded so it is possible for user to lose the access right by updated database even though he is once authenticated. In this case, even though the user is ac- cessible to network, he should be authenticated once again so that the changed database is applied to. Besides, because of various reasons for managing RADIUS server and 802.1x authentication port, the user is supposed to be re-authenticated every regular time. The administrator of hiD 6615 S223/S323 can configure a term of re-authentication.

To configure a term of re-authentication, use the following command.

Command Mode Description

dot1x timeout reauth-period <1-

4294967295> PORTS

Global

no dot1x timeout reauth-period

PORTS

Deletes the period between re-authentication attempts.

4.5.2.3Configuring the Interval of Requesting Re-authentication

When the authenticator sends Request/Identity packet for re-authentication and no re- sponse is received from the suppliant for the number of seconds, the authenticator re- transmits the request to the suppliant. In hiD 6615 S223/S323, you can set the number of seconds that the authenticator should wait for a response to request/identity packet from the suppliant before retransmitting the request.

To set a period that the authenticator waits for a response, use the following command.

Command	Mode	Description
		Sets reattempt interval for requesting request/identity
dot1x timeout quiet-period <1-		packet.
65535> PORTS	Global	1-65535: reattempt interval seconds
