1.2.12 Configuring Timers
The following commands are used for configuring the 802.1x timers.
Perform the following configurations in system view.
Table 1-15 Configuring timers
Operation Command
Configure timers
dot1x timer { handshake-period handshake-period-value |
quiet-period quiet-period-value | reauth-period
reauth-period-value | server-timeout server-timeout-value |
supp-timeout supp-timeout-value | tx-period
tx-period-value | ver-period ver-period-value }
Restore default
settings of the timers
undo dot1x timer { handshake-period | quiet-period |
reauth-period | server-timeout | supp-timeout | tx-period
| ver-period }
handshake-period: This timer begins after the user has passed the authentication.
After setting handshake-period, system will send the handshake packet by the period.
Suppose the dot1x retry time is configured as N, the system will consider the user
having logged off and set the user as logoff state if system doesn’t receive the response
from user for consecutive N times.
handshake-period-value: Handshake period. The value ranges from 1 to 1024 in units
of second and defaults to 15.
quiet-period: Specify the quiet timer. If an 802.1x user has not passed the
authentication, the Authenticator will keep quiet for a while (which is specified by
quiet-period timer) before launching the authentication again. During the quiet period,
the Authenticator does not do anything related to 802.1x authentication.
quiet-period-value: Specify how long the quiet period is. The value ranges from 10 to
120 in units of second and defaults to 60.
