Configuring 802.1x timeouts on specific interface ports

NOTE

While you are free to modify the timeouts, Brocade recommends that you leave timeouts set to their
default values.

You can configure the following timeout values:

—Configures the time in seconds between reauthentication attempts. The
value must be in the range 1 through 4,294,967,295. The default is 3600.

—Configures a timeout interval in seconds for the 802.1x server. This period
is the amount of time the switch waits for a reply before retransmitting the response to the
server, when relaying the response from the client to the authentication server. The value must
be in the range 1 through 65535. The default value is 30.

—Configures a timeout interval in seconds for the 802.1x supplicant. This
period is the amount of time the switch waits for a response before retransmitting the request
to the client when relaying a request from the authentication server to client. The value must
be in the range 1 through 65535. The default value is 30.

—Configures the transmission timeout. This value specifies the number of seconds
the switch waits for a response to an EAP request/identity from the client before retransmitting
the request. The value must be in the range 1 through 65535. The default value is 30.

To configure 802.1x timeout attributes on a specific interface port, perform the following steps.
Repeat this task for each interface port you wish to modify.

1. Issue the RPC to configure the node in the

urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface namespace.

2. Under the node, specify the , ,

, or node element.

NOTE

You cannot configure 802.1x authentication on a port-channel.
