Chapter 46 Configuring 802.1X Port-Based Authentication
Configuring 802.1X Port-Based Authentication
This example shows how to configure a switch to derive the reauthentication period from the server and
to verify the configuration:
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(50):
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface f7/1
Switch(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch(config-if)# dot1x pae authenticator
Switch(config-if)# authentication timer reauthenticate server
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch# show dot1x interface f7/1 det
Dot1x Info for FastEthernet7/11
-----------------------------------
PAE = AUTHENTICATOR
PortControl = FORCE_AUTHORIZED
ControlDirection = Both
HostMode = SINGLE_HOST
ReAuthentication = Disabled
QuietPeriod = 60
ServerTimeout = 30
SuppTimeout = 30
ReAuthPeriod = (From Authentication Server)
ReAuthMax = 2
MaxReq = 2
TxPeriod = 30
RateLimitPeriod = 0
Dot1x Authenticator Client List Empty
Port Status = AUTHORIZED
Switch#
Cisco IOS Release 12.2(46) or earlier
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface f7/1
Switch(config-if)# switchport mode access
Switch(config-if)# dot1x pae authenticator
Switch(config-if)# dot1x timeout reauth-attempts server
Switch(config-if)# end
Switch# show dot1x interface f7/1 det
