Manual Re-Authentication; Optional 802.1X Commands - Avaya G250 Administration Manual

Accessing the Avaya G250/G350 Media Gateway

Manual re-authentication

You can perform a manual re-authentication at any time. To perform a manual re-authentication,
enter set port dot1x re-authenticate, followed by the module and port number (or
range of ports). For example:
G250-001(super)# set port dot1x re-authenticate 10/5-10
G350-001(super)# set port dot1x re-authenticate 6/5-10
When you perform a manual re-authentication, the port or ports attempt to re-authenticate the
host immediately.
