Allied Telesyn AT-9724TS High-Density Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch
Description
Choose the Switch ID number of the Switch in the switch stack to be modified.
Enter the port or ports to be set.
Sets the administrative-controlled direction to either in or both.
If in is selected, control is only exerted over incoming traffic through the port you selected in the first field.
If both is selected, control is exerted over both incoming and outgoing traffic through the controlled port
selected in the first field.
This allows you to control the port authorization state.
Select forceAuthorized to disable 802.1X and cause the port to transition to the authorized state without any
authentication exchange required.This means the port transmits and receives normal traffic without 802.1X-
based authentication of the client.
If forceUnauthorized is selected, the port will remain in the unauthorized state, ignoring all attempts by the client
to authenticate.The Switch cannot provide authentication services to the client through the interface.
If Auto is selected, it will enable 802.1X and cause the port to begin in the unauthorized state, allowing only
EAPOL frames to be sent and received through the port.The authentication process begins when the link state
of the port transitions from down to up, or when an EAPOL-start frame is received.The Switch then requests
the identity of the client and begins relaying authentication messages between the client and the authentication
server.
The default setting is Auto.
This sets the TxPeriod of time for the authenticator PAE state machine.This value determines the period of
an EAP Request/Identity packet transmitted to the client.The default setting is 30 seconds.
This allows you to set the number of seconds that the Switch remains in the quiet state following a failed
authentication exchange with the client.The default setting is 60 seconds.
This value determines timeout conditions in the exchanges between the Authenticator and the client.The
default setting is 30 seconds.
This value determines timeout conditions in the exchanges between the Authenticator and the authentication
server.The default setting is 30 seconds.
The maximum number of times that the Switch will retransmit an EAP Request to the client before it times out
of the authentication sessions.The default setting is 2.
A constant that defines a nonzero number of seconds between periodic reauthentication of the client.The
default setting is 3600 seconds.
Determines whether regular reauthentication will take place on this port.The default setting is Disabled.
