Parameters
None.
Default
By default, this option is disabled.
Command Mode
Global Configuration Mode.
Command Default Level
Level: 12.
Usage Guideline
The 802.1X authentication function restricts unauthorized hosts from accessing the network. Use the
dot1x system-auth-control command to globally enable the 802.1X authentication control. When
802.1X authentication is enabled, the system will authenticate the 802.1X user based on the method list
configured by the aaa authentication dot1x default command.
Example
This example shows how to enable IEEE 802.1X authentication globally on a switch.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# dot1x system-auth-control
Switch(config)#
3-11 dot1x timeout
This command is used to configure IEEE 802.1X timers. Use the no form of the command to revert a
specific timer setting to the default value.
dot1x timeout {server-timeout SECONDS | supp-timeout SECONDS | tx-period SECONDS}
no dot1x timeout {server-timeout | supp-timeout | tx-period}
Parameters
server-timeout SECONDS
Specifies the number of seconds that the Switch will wait for the
request from the authentication server before timing out the server. On
timeout, authenticator will send EAP-Request packet to client. The
range is 1 to 65535.
supp-timeout SECONDS
Specifies the number of seconds that the Switch will wait for the
response from the supplicant before timing out the supplicant
messages other than EAP request ID. The range is 1 to 65535
tx-period SECONDS
Specifies the number of seconds that the Switch will wait for a
response to an EAP-Request/Identity frame from the supplicant before
retransmitting the request. The range is 1 to 65535
Default
The server-timeout is 30 seconds.
The supp-timeout is 30 seconds.
The tx-period is 30 seconds.
