Command Mode
Interface Configuration
Command Usage
• The re-authentication process verifies the connected client’s user ID
and password on the RADIUS server. During re-authentication, the
client remains connected the network and the process is handled
transparently by the dot1x client software. Only if re-authentication fails
is the port blocked. Re-authentication can be used to detect if a new
device is plugged into an ECN330 port.
• The connected client is re-authenticated after the interval specified by
the dot1x timeout re-authperiod command. The default is 3600
seconds.
