Dot1X Retry - HP HSR6600 Command Reference Manual

Default command level
2: System level
Usage guidelines
Periodic re-authentication enables the access device to periodically authenticate online 802.1X users on
a port. This function tracks the connection status of online users and updates the authorization attributes
assigned by the server, such as the ACL, VLAN, and user profile-based QoS.
You can use the dot1x timer reauth-period command to configure the interval for re-authentication.
Examples
# Enable the 802.1X periodic online user re-authentication function on GigabitEthernet 3/0/1 and set
the periodic re-authentication interval to 1800 seconds.

Parameters
max-retry-value: Specifies the maximum number of attempts for sending an authentication request to a
client. The value range is 1 to 10.
Usage guidelines
After the network access device sends an authentication request to a client, if the device receives no
response from the client within the username request timeout timer (set with the dot1x timer tx-period
tx-period-value command) or the client timeout timer (set with the dot1x timer supp-timeout
supp-timeout-value command), the device retransmits the authentication request. The network access
device stops retransmitting the request, if it has made the maximum number of request transmission
attempts but still received no response.
This command applies to all ports of the device.
