The re-authentication process verifies the connected client’s u ser ID

client remains connected the network and the process is handled
transparently by the dot1x client software. Only if re-authentication
fails is the port blocked.
The connected client is re-authenticated after the interval specified by
the dot1x timeout re-authperiod command. The default is 3600
seconds.
