Configuring Web Authentication
Web authentication is configured on a per-port basis, however there are four
configurable parameters that apply globally to all ports on the switch.
Command Attributes
• System Authentication Control – Enables Web Authentication for the switch.
(Default: Disabled)
• Session Timeout – Configures how long an authenticated session stays active
before it must re-authenticate itself. (Default: 3600 seconds; Range: 300-3600
seconds)
• Quiet Period – Configures how long a host must wait to attempt authentication
again after it has exceeded the maximum allowable failed login attempts.
(Range: 1-180 seconds; Default: 60 seconds)
• Login Attempts – Configures the amount of times a supplicant may attempt and
fail authentication before it must wait the configured quiet period. (Range: 1-3
attempts; Default: 3 attempts)
