Quiet Period - This input field allows the user to configure the quiet period for the selected port. This command
。
sets the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the authenticator state machine on this port to define periods of
time in which it will not attempt to acquire a supplicant. The quiet period is the period for which the authenticator
does not attempt to acquire a supplicant after a failed authentication exchange with the supplicant. The quiet
period must be a number in the range of 0 and 65535. A quiet period value of 0 means that the authenticator state
machine will never acquire a supplicant. The default value is 60. Changing the value will not change the
configuration until the Submit button is pressed.
Transmit Period - This input field allows the user to configure the transmit period for the selected port. The
。
transmit period is the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the authenticator state machine on the specified port
to determine when to send an EAPOL EAP Request/Identity frame to the supplicant. The transmit period must be
a number in the range of 1 and 65535. The default value is 30. Changing the value will not change the
configuration until the Submit button is pressed.

the Submit button is pressed.
Reauthentication Enabled - This select field allows the user to enable or disable reauthentication of the
