Command
Function
dot1x port-control auto
Set the port to be a controlled port (enable interface
authentication). You can use the no option of the
command to disable the authentication of the
interface.
end
Return to the privileged mode.
write
Save the configuration.
show dot1x port-control
View the authentication configuration of the 802.1X
interface.
You can use the no dot1x port-control command to disable the authentication of the
interface. The following example sets Ethernet interface 1/1 to be a controlled interface:
DGS-3610# configure terminal
DGS-3610(config)# interface f 1/1
DGS-3610(config-if)# dot1x port-control auto
DGS-3610(config)# end
When a port is set as a controlled port, only the EAP packets are allowed to pass; the
packets to the CPU are also under control.
37.2.6 Enabling Timing Re-authentication
The 802.1X can ask users for re-authentication periodically, to prevent pretending of
authorized users. This can also detect disconnection, making more accurate charging. In
addition to the re-authentication switch, you can also define the re-authentication interval,
which is 3600 seconds by default. In the case of charging based on duration, you should
determine the re-authentication interval according to the specific network size, which should
be sufficient and accurate.
In the privileged mode, you can enable/disable re-authentication and set the
re-authentication interval through the following steps.
Command
Function
configure terminal
Enter the global configuration mode.
dot1x re-authentication
Enable timing re-authentication.
dot1x timeout re-authperiod seconds
Set the re-authentication interval.
End
Return to the privileged mode.
Write
Save the configuration.
show dot1x
Show the dot1x configurations.
You can use the no dot1x re-authentication command to disable timing re-authentication,
and use the no dot1x timeout re-authperiod command to restore the re-authentication
interval to the default.
