Web and MAC Authentication for the Series 2600/2600-PWR and 2800 Switches
Configuring Web Authentication

Syntax:

aaa port-access web-based [e] < port-list >

[logoff-period] <60-9999999>]

Specifies the period, in seconds, that the switch
enforces for an implicit logoff. This parameter is
equivalent to the MAC age interval in a traditional
switch sense. If the switch does not see activity after a
logoff-period interval, the client is returned to its pre-
authentication state. (Default: 300 seconds)

Syntax:

aaa port-access web-based [e] < port-list > [max-requests <1-10>]

Specifies the number of authentication attempts that
must time-out before authentication fails.
(Default: 2)

Syntax:

aaa port-access web-based [e] < port-list > [max-retries <1-10>]

Specifies the number of the number of times a client
can enter their user name and password before authen-
tication fails. This allows the reentry of the user name
and password if necessary.
(Default: 3)

Syntax:

aaa port-access web-based [e] < port-list > [quiet-period <1 - 65535>]

Specifies the time period, in seconds, the switch should
wait before attempting an authentication request for
a client that failed authentication.
(Default: 60 seconds)

Syntax:

aaa port-access web-based [e] < port-list > [reauth-period <0 - 9999999>]

Specifies the time period, in seconds, the switch
enforces on a client to re-authenticate. When set to

0,

reauthentication is disabled. (Default: 300 seconds)

Syntax:

aaa port-access web-based [e] < port-list > [reauthenticate]

Forces a reauthentication of all attached clients on the
port.
