Usage Guidelines
The 802.1X transmission-timeout period is the number of seconds that the Cisco NX-OS device waits for a
response to an EAP-request/identity frame from the supplicant before retransmitting the request.
You must use the feature dot1x command before you configure 802.1X.
You should change the default value only to adjust for unusual circumstances, such as unreliable links or
specific behavioral problems with certain supplicants and authentication servers.
Note
This command does not require a license.
