Usage 
You should change the default value of this command only to adjust for unusual circumstances such as 
unreliable links or specific behavioral problems with certain clients and authentication servers. 
The dot1x timeout reauth-period interface configuration command affects the behavior of the switch 
only if you have enabled periodic re-authentication by using the dot1x reauthentication interface 
configuration command.
