authentication is globally enabled and the port's Admin State is in an
EAPOL-based or MAC-based mode.
Clicking these buttons will not cause settings changed on the page to take effect.

Reauthenticate

: Schedules a reauthentication to whenever the quiet-period

The button only has effect for successfully authenticated clients on the port and

reauthentication immediately. The clients will transfer to the unauthorized
