Parameters
max-retry-value: Specifies the maximum number of attempts for sending an authentication request to a
client, in the range 1 to 10.
Description
Use the dot1x retry command to set the maximum number of attempts for sending an authentication
request to a client.
Use the undo dot1x retry command to restore the default.
By default, the device sends an authentication request to a client twice at most.
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 (by the dot1x timer tx-period
tx-period-value command) or the client timeout timer (by the dot1x timer supp-timeout supp-timeout-value
command), the device retransmits the authentication request. If the number of transmission attempts
exceeds the specified upper limit but the device still receives no response, it stops transmitting the request.
This command applies to all ports of the device.
