The authenticator can also be configured to periodically trigger the authentication
process automatically. This is controlled by the enable reauthentication and
reauthentication period parameters. Re-auth-period indicates the time in seconds
(since the last time that the authorization state was confirmed) before a new
authentication process is started. The range of re-auth-period is 1 to 9000 s (the
default is 3600 s). The port stays in an authorized state during the reauthentication
process.
