Catalyst 3750 Switch Cisco IOS Commands

The dot1x timeout reauth-period interface configuration command affects the behavior of the switch

only if you have enabled periodic re-authentication by using the dot1x reauthentication interface

configuration command.

During the quiet period, the switch does not accept or initiate any authentication requests. If you want

to provide a faster response time to the user, enter a smaller number than the default.

This example shows how to enable periodic re-authentication and to set 4000 as the number of seconds

between re-authentication attempts:

Switch(config-if)# dot1x reauthentication

Switch(config-if)# dot1x timeout reauth-period 4000

This example shows how to set 30 seconds as the quiet time on the switch:

Switch(config-if)# dot1x timeout quiet-period 30

This example shows how to set 45 seconds as the switch-to-authentication server retransmission time:

Switch(config)# dot1x timeout server-timeout 45

This example shows how to set 45 seconds as the switch-to-client retransmission time for the EAP

request frame:

Switch(config-if)# dot1x timeout supp-timeout 45

This example shows how to set 60 as the number of seconds to wait for a response to an

EAP-request/identity frame from the client before re-transmitting the request:

Switch(config-if)# dot1x timeout tx-period 60

You can verify your settings by entering the show dot1x privileged EXEC command.
