Set WLAN Authentication Attempts

An authentication request is a confirmation of the user's sign-in credentials. It occurs whenever a phone that
has already joined a Wi-Fi network tries to reconnect to the Wi-Fi server. Examples include when a Wi-Fi
session times out or a Wi-Fi connection is lost and then reacquired.
You can configure the number of times a Wi-Fi phone sends an authentication request to the Wi-Fi server.
The default number of attempts is 2, but you can set this parameter from 1 to 3. If a phone fails the
authentication, then the user is prompted to sign in again.
You can apply WLAN Authentication Attempts to individual phones, to a pool of phones, or to all of the
Wi-Fi phones in your network.
