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,
use the set prt dot1x re-authenticate command, 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.
Optional 802.1x commands
Use the set port dot1x port-mode command, followed by the module and port
●
number and an authentication mode, to specify a port's mode of authentication: port-based
(single supplicant) or MAC-based (multiple supplicants).
Use the clear dot1x config command to return the 802.1x values to default and
●
disable the 802.1x application on the G250/G350.
Use the set port dot1x initialize command, followed by the module and port
●
number (or range of ports) to initialize a port or ports.
Use the set dot1x quiet-period command, followed by a time period in seconds (0
●
to 65535), to set the minimum idle time between authentication attempts for all ports on
which 802.1x is enabled.
Use the set port dot1x quiet-period command, followed by the module and port
●
number (or range of ports) and a time period in seconds (0 to 65535), to set the minimum
idle time between authentication attempts for a specific port or ports.
Use the set dot1x tx-period command, followed by a time period in seconds (1 to
●
65535), to set the time internal between attempts to access the Authenticated Station for
all ports on which 802.1x is enabled.
Use the set port dot1x tx-period command, followed by the module and port
●
number (or range of ports) and a time period in seconds (0 to 65535), to set the time
internal between attempts to access the Authenticated Station for a specific port or ports.
Use the set dot1x supp-timeout command, followed by a time period in seconds (1
●
to 65535), to set the authenticator-to-supplicant retransmission timeout period (the time for
the G250/G350 to wait for a reply from the Authenticated Station) for all ports on which
802.1x is enabled.
Use the set port dot1x supp-timeout command, followed by the module and port
●
number (or range of ports) and a time period in seconds (0 to 65535), to set the
authenticator-to-supplicant retransmission timeout period (the time for the G250/G350 to
wait for a reply from the Authenticated Station) for a specific port or ports.
