Parameters
offline-detect offline-detect-value: Sets the offline detect timer, in the range 60 to 65535 seconds. This
timer sets the interval that the device waits for traffic from a user before it regards the user idle. If a user
connection has been idle for two consecutive intervals, the device logs the user out and stops accounting
for the user.
quiet quiet-value: Sets the quiet timer, in the range 1 to 3600 seconds. This timer sets the interval that the
device must wait before it can perform MAC authentication for a user that has failed MAC authentication.
All packets from the MAC address are dropped during the quiet time. This quiet mechanism prevents
repeated authentication from affecting system performance.
server-timeout server-timeout-value: Sets the server timeout timer in seconds, in the range 100 to 300.
This timer sets the interval that the access device waits for a response from a RADIUS server before it
regards the RADIUS server unavailable. If the timer expires during MAC authentication, the user cannot
access the network.
Description
Use the mac-authentication timer command to set the MAC authentication timers.
Use the undo mac-authentication timer command to restore the defaults.
By default, the offline detect timer is 300 seconds, the quiet timer is 60 seconds, and the server timeout
timer is 100 seconds.
Related commands: display mac-authentication.
