Specifying A Mandatory Authentication Domain On A Port; Configuring The Quiet Timer - HP 10500 Series Configuration Manual

Step
2. Set the username
request timeout timer.
3. Enter Ethernet
interface view.
4. Enable an
authentication trigger.
Specifying a mandatory authentication domain on
a port
You can place all 802.1X users in a mandatory authentication domain for authentication, authorization,
and accounting on a port. No user can use an account in any other domain to access the network
through the port. The implementation of a mandatory authentication domain enhances the flexibility of
802.1X access control deployment.
To specify a mandatory authentication domain for a port:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter Ethernet interface view.
3. Specify a mandatory 802.1X
authentication domain on the
port.

Configuring the quiet timer

The quiet timer enables the network access device to wait a period of time before it can process any
authentication request from a client that has failed an 802.1X authentication.
You can set the quiet timer to a high value in a vulnerable network or a low value for quicker
authentication response.
To configure the quiet timer:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable the quiet timer.
3. Set the quiet timer.
