Quiet Period
Sets the number of seconds that the port remains in the quiet state
following a failed authentication exchange with the client. The default
value is 60 seconds. The range is 0 to 65,535 seconds.
Maximum Request
Sets the maximum number of times that the switch retransmits an EAP
Request packet to the client before it times out the authentication
session. The default value for this parameter is 2 retransmissions. The
range is 1 to 10 retransmissions.
Re-authentication Period
Specifies the time period between periodic reauthentication of the
client. The default value is 3,600 seconds. The range is 1 to 65,535
seconds.
Multi-host
Enables multiple hosts to a single 802.1x enabled port. The options
are Enable or Disable. The default setting is Disable.
The Disable setting is appropriate when there is only one host node
connected to each port on the switch. The switch will only accept
packets into this port with the source MAC address of the
authenticated user.
The Enable setting is appropriate if there is more than one host node
connected to a switch port, such as when a port is connected to an
Ethernet hub to which multiple host nodes are connected. Once the
first authentication is completed, the switch will accept packets into this
port from any source MAC.
Guest VLAN ID
Specifies the guest VLAN ID. This feature is only supported on an
authentication port in the single operating mode. Choose a value
between 0 and 4,000. Then click Apply. There is no default value. For
more information, see “Guest VLANs” on page 172.

7. If the port control setting is Auto and you want the node connected to
the port to reauthenticate with the RADIUS server, select Yes for the
Re-auth Initialize parameter and click Apply.
