Example of Configuring and Verifying Port Authentication
The following example shows configuration information for a port for which the authenticator re-transmits an EAP Request Identity frame:
• after 90 seconds and a maximum of 10 times for an unresponsive supplicant
• re-transmits an EAP Request Identity frame
The bold lines show the new re-transmit interval, new quiet period, and new maximum re-transmissions.

Configuring a Quiet Period after a Failed
Authentication
If the supplicant fails the authentication process, the authenticator sends another Request Identity frame after 30 seconds by default. You
can configure this period.
NOTE: The quiet period (dot1x quiet-period) is the transmit interval after a failed authentication; the Request Identity Re-
transmit interval (dot1x tx-period) is for an unresponsive supplicant.
To configure a quiet period, use the following command.
• Configure the amount of time that the authenticator waits to re-transmit a Request Identity frame after a failed authentication.
