Parameter
max-retry-value: Maximum number of times that a switch sends authentication request
packets to online supplicant systems. This argument ranges from 1 to 10.
Description
Use the dot1x retry command to specify the maximum number of times that a switch
will send authentication request packets to supplicant systems.
Use the undo dot1x retry command to revert to the default value.
The default value is 2 times.
Having sent authentication request packets to a supplicant system, a switch will resend
the packets if within a preset period it still has not received any response from the
supplicant system. The dot1x retry command is used to set the maximum number of
times that a switch will resend the request packets. When set to 1, it means that the
switch will only send request packets once, and 2 represents that the switch will resend
the packets once if no response comes back, and so on. This command applies to all
ports.
Related command: display dot1x.
Example
# Specify the maximum number of times that the switch will resend authentication
request packets to be 9.
