10-20
Default Setting
60 seconds (number of seconds that the switch remains in the quiet state
following a failed authentication exchange with the client).
30 seconds (number of seconds that the switch should wait for a response to an
EAP request/identity frame from the client before resending the request).
2 times (number of times that the switch will send an EAP-request/identity
frame before restarting the authentication process).
30 seconds (when relaying a request from the authentication server to the
client, the amount of time the switch waits for a response before resending the
request to the client.)
30 seconds (when relaying a response from the client to the authentication
server, the amount of time the switch waits for a reply before resending the
response to the server.)
You can change this timeout period by using the dot1x timeout
server-timeout interface configuration command.

When IEEE 802.1x authentication is enabled, ports are authenticated before any other Layer 2
feature is enabled.
If you try to change the mode of an IEEE 802.1x-enabled port (for example, from access to trunk),
an error message appears, and the port mode is not changed.
If the VLAN to which an IEEE 802.1x-enabled port is assigned changes, this change is transparent
and does not affect the switch. For example, this change occurs if a port is assigned to a RADIUS
server-assigned VLAN and is then assigned to a different VLAN after re-authentication.
