Clearing authenticated hosts from the webauthentication table
Use the following commands to clear dynamically-authenticated hosts from the Web Authentication
table.
To clear all authenticated hosts in a Web authentication VLAN, enter a command such as the following.
device#clear webauth vlan 25 authenticated-mac
This command clears all the authenticated hosts in VLAN 25.
To clear a particular host in a Web authentication VLAN, enter a command such as the following.
device#clear webauth vlan 25 authenticated-mac 0000.0022.3333
This command clears host 0000.0022.3333 from VLAN 25.
Syntax: clear webauth vlan vlan-id authenticated-mac [ mac-address ]
Setting and clearing the block duration for webauthentication attempts
After users exceed the limit for Web Authentication attempts, specify how many seconds users must
wait before the next cycle of Web Authenticated begins. Enter a command such as the following.
device(config-vlan-10-webauth)# block duration 4
Syntax: [no] block duration seconds
Users cannot attempt Web Authentication during this time.
Enter 0-128000 seconds. The default is 90 seconds, and entering 0 means that the MAC address is
infinitely blocked.
To unblock the MAC address, wait until the block duration timer expires or enter a command such as
the following.
Brocade(config-vlan-10-webauth)# clear webauth vlan 10 block-mac 000.000.1234
Syntax: clear webauth vlan vlan-id block-mac [ mac-address ]
If you do not enter a mac-address , then all the entries for the specified VLAN will be cleared.
Manually blocking and unblocking a specific host
A host can be temporarily or permanently blocked from attempting Web Authentication by entering a
command such as the following.
Brocade(config-vlan-10-webauth)# block mac 0000.00d1.0a3d duration 4
Syntax: [no] block mac mac-address duration seconds
Syntax: [no] block mac mac-address
Enter 0 - 128000 for seconds . The default is the current value of block duration command. Entering a
value of "0" means the MAC address is blocked permanently.
Entering no block mac mac-address duration seconds resets duration to its default value.
You can unblock a host by entering the no block mac mac-address command.
