User Guidelines
During the quiet period, the switch does not accept or initiate any
authentication requests.
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.
To provide a faster response time to the user, enter a smaller number than the
default.
Example
The following example sets the number of seconds that the switch remains in
the quiet state following a failed authentication exchange to 3600.
console(config)# interface ethernet 1/g16
console(config-if-1/g16)# dot1x timeout quiet-period
3600
dot1x timeout re-authperiod
Use the dot1x timeout re-authperiod command in Interface Configuration
mode to set the number of seconds between re-authentication attempts. To
return to the default setting, use the no form of this command.
