- auto—Select this option if the port control is based on the result of the
authentication process. If the supplicant is authenticated, the port control
status becomes Authorized, meaning the supplicant is granted access to
the port. If the supplicant is not authenticated, the port control status
becomes Unauthorized, meaning the supplicant is denied access.
- Force Authorized—Select this option to always allow port access if
authentication of remote supplicants is not required. If selected, the port
control status will be Authorized.
Periodic Reauthentication—Select this option if the port is to re-
authenticate its supplicant periodically. The port will reauthenticate at the
scheduled interval, even if it has remained authenticated.
Reauthentication Period—The interval between reauthentication attempts.
The range is 300–65535 seconds. The default is 3600 seconds.
Reauthenticate Now—Forces immediate port reauthentication, when
selected.
Authenticator State—The current port authorization state. Possible states
are: Initialize, Disconnected, Connecting, Authenticating, Authenticated,
Aborting, Held, Force Authenticate, and Force Unauthenticate.
Quiet Period—Amount of time that the switch remains in the quiet state
following a failed authentication exchange. During the quiet period, the
switch does not accept or initiate authentication requests. Change the
default value of this command only to adjust for unusual circumstances, such
as unreliable links or specific behavioral problems with certain clients and
authentication servers. To provide a faster response time to the user, enter a
smaller number than the default (60 seconds). The range is 0–65535
seconds.
Resending EAP—The amount of time that lapses before EAP requests are
resent. The range is 1–65535 seconds and the default is 30 seconds.
Supplicant Timeout—The amount of time that lapses before EAP requests
are resent to supplicants. Change the default value of this command (30
seconds) only to adjust for unusual circumstances, such as unreliable links or
specific behavioral problems with certain clients and authentication servers.
To provide a faster response time to the user, enter a smaller number than the
default. The range is 1–65535 seconds.
Server Timeout—The amount of time that lapses before the switch resends
a request to the authentication server. The range is 1–65535 seconds and
the default is 30 seconds.
