DESCRIPTION
Specify how often wireless stations have to resend user names and
passwords in order to stay connected. Enter a time interval between 10
and 65535 seconds.
If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS server, the
reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server has priority.
The Vantage CNM automatically disconnects a wireless station from the
wireless network after a period of inactivity. The wireless station needs to
send the username and password again before it can use the wireless
network again. Some wireless clients may prompt users for a username
and password; other clients may use saved login credentials. In either
case, there is usually a short delay while the wireless client logs in to the
wireless network again.
This value is usually smaller when the wireless network is keeping track
of how much time each wireless station is connected to the wireless
network (for example, using an authentication server). If the wireless
network is not keeping track of this information, you can usually set this
value higher to reduce the number of delays caused by logging in again.
Click Local User to go to the Local User Database screen where you
can view and/or edit the list of users and passwords. Click RADIUS to go
to the RADIUS screen where you can configure the Vantage CNM to
check an external RADIUS server.
