Usage Guidelines
During the quiet period, the switch does not accept or initiate any authentication requests.
You should change the default value of this command only to adjust for unusual circumstances such as
unreliable links or specific behavioral problems with certain clients and authentication servers.
If you want to provide a faster response time to the user, enter a smaller number than the default.
Examples The following example shows how to set the quiet time on the switch to 30 seconds:
Switch(config)# dot1x timeout quiet-period 30
You can verify your settings by entering the show dot1x privileged EXEC command.
