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

and password on the RADIUS server. During re-authentication, the

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.
