5.29.7 dot1x timeout quiet-period

The dot1x timeout quiet-period interface configuration command sets the number of seconds that the

switch remains in the quiet state following a failed authentication exchange (for example, the client

provided an invalid password). Use the no form of this command to return to the default setting.

Syntax

dot1x timeout quiet-period seconds

no dot1x timeout quiet-period

ƒ seconds — Time in seconds that the switch remains in the quiet state following a failed

authentication exchange with the client. (Range: 0 - 65535 seconds)

Default Configuration

60

Command Mode

Interface configuration (Ethernet)

User Guidelines

During the quiet period, the switch does not accept or initiate any authentication requests.

The default value of this command should only be changed to adjust for unusual circumstances, such as

unreliable links or specific behavioral problems with certain clients and authentication servers.

If it is necessary to provide a faster response time to the user, a smaller number than the default should

be entered.

Examples

The following example sets the number of seconds that the switch remains in the quiet state following a

failed authentication exchange, to 3600.

Console (config)# interface ethernet e8

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

5.29.8 dot1x timeout tx-period

The dot1x timeout tx-period interface configuration command sets the number of seconds that the

switch waits for a response to an Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) - request/identity frame, from

the client, before resending the request. Use the no form of this command to return to the default setting.

Syntax

dot1x timeout tx-period seconds
