You must set the bonded period to longer than 0 seconds to enable
bonded authentication.

seconds
authenticated machine while waiting for a client to (re)authenticate

period to a value from 1 to 300 seconds.
Defaults — The default bonded period is 0 seconds, which disables the
feature.

Usage — 3Com recommends that you try 60 seconds, and change the
period to a longer value only if clients are unable to authenticate within
60 seconds.

type the following command:
