Configuring Port-Based and Client-Based Access Control (802.1X)
Configuring Switch Ports To Operate As Supplicants for 802.1X Connections to Other Switches
[max-start < 1 - 10 >]
Defines the maximum number of times the supplicant
port requests authentication. See step 1 on page 8-44
for a description of how the port reacts to the authen-
ticator response. (Default: 3).
[held-period < 0 - 65535 >]
Sets the time period the supplicant port waits after an
active 802.1X session fails before trying to re- acquire
the authenticator port. (Default: 60 seconds)
[start-period < 1 - 300 >]
Sets the time period between Start packet retransmis-
sions. That is, after a supplicant sends a start packet,
it waits during the start-period for a response. If no
response comes during the start- period, the supplicant
sends a new start packet. The max-start setting (above)
specifies how many start attempts are allowed in the
session. (Default: 30 seconds)
aaa port-access supplicant [ethernet] < port-list >
[initialize]
On the specified ports, blocks inbound and outbound
traffic and restarts the 802.1X authentication process.
Affects only ports configured as 802.1X supplicants.
[clear-statistics]
Clears and restarts the 802.1X supplicant statistics
counters.
