Command
Step 3
Router(config-if)# dot1x timeout reauth-period
seconds
Router(config-if)# no dot1x timeout reauth-period
Step 4
Router(config-if)# end
Step 5
Router# show dot1x all
1. type = ethernet, fastethernet, gigabitethernet, or tengigabitethernet
This example shows how to enable periodic reauthentication and set the number of seconds between
reauthentication attempts to 4000:
Router(config-if)# dot1x reauthentication
Router(config-if)# dot1x timeout reauth-period 4000

Manually Reauthenticating the Client Connected to a Port

Note Reauthentication does not disturb the status of an already authorized port.
To manually reauthenticate the client connected to a port, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
Router# dot1x re-authenticate
1
interface type
Step 2
Router# show dot1x all
1. type = ethernet, fastethernet, gigabitethernet, or tengigabitethernet
This example shows how to manually reauthenticate the client connected to Fast Ethernet port 5/1:
Router# dot1x re-authenticate interface fastethernet 5/1
Starting reauthentication on FastEthernet 5/1
