Permit user access to the network after a RADIUS timeout
To set the RADIUS timeout behavior to bypass 802.1X authentication and permit user access to the
network, enter commands such as the following
device(config)#interface ethernet 3/1
device(config-if-e100-3/1)#dot1x auth-timeout-action success
Syntax: [no] dot1x auth-timeout-action success
Once the success timeout action is enabled, use the no form of the command to reset the RADIUS
timeout behavior to retry .
Re-authenticate a user
To configure RADIUS timeout behavior to bypass multi-device port authentication and permit user
access to the network, enter commands similar to the following
device(config)#interface ethernet 3/1
device(config-if-e100-3/1)#dot1x re-auth-timeout-success 60
Syntax: no dot1x re-auth-timeout- success seconds
The seconds parameter specifies the number of seconds the device will wait to re-authenticate a user
after a timeout. The minimum value is 10 seconds. The maximum value is 2 16 -1 (maximum unsigned
16-bit value).
Deny user access to the network after a RADIUS timeout
To set the RADIUS timeout behavior to bypass 802.1X authentication and block user access to the
network, enter commands such as the following
device(config)#interface ethernet 3/1
device(config-if-e100-3/1)#dot1x auth-timeout-action failure
Syntax: [no] dot1x auth-timeout-action failure
Once the failure timeout action is enabled, use the no form of the command to reset the RADIUS
timeout behavior to retry .
NOTE
If restrict-vlan is configured along with auth-timeout-action failure, the user will be placed into a VLAN
with restricted or limited access.Refer to
Allow user access to a restricted VLAN after a RADIUS timeout
on page 183.
Allow user access to a restricted VLAN after a RADIUS timeout
To set the RADIUS timeout behavior to bypass 802.1X authentication and place the user in a VLAN
with restricted or limited access, enter commands such as the following
device(config)#interface ethernet 3/1
device(config-if-e100-3/1)#dot1x auth-timeout-action failure
Syntax: [no] dot1x auth-timeout-action failure
Allow user access to a restricted VLAN after a RADIUS timeout
