Tokens Definition
guest-vlan-period The time, in seconds, for which the authenticator waits to see if any EAPOL packets are
received on a port before authorizing the port and placing the port in the guest vlan (if
configured). The guest vlan timer is only relevant when guest vlan has been configured
on that specific port.
reauth-period The value, in seconds, of the timer used by the authenticator state machine on this port
to determine when re-authentication of the supplicant takes place. The reauth-period
must be a value in the range 1 - 65535.
