Example of Viewing Congured Server Timeouts
The example shows conguration information for a port for which the authenticator terminates the authentication process for an
unresponsive supplicant or server after 15 seconds.
The bold lines show the new supplicant and server timeouts.
DellEMC(conf-if-Gi-1/1)#dot1x port-control force-authorized
DellEMC(conf-if-Gi-1/1)#do show dot1x interface GigabitEthernet 1/1

Conguring Dynamic VLAN Assignment with Port
Authentication
Dell EMC Networking OS supports dynamic VLAN assignment when using 802.1X.
The basis for VLAN assignment is RADIUS attribute 81, Tunnel-Private-Group-ID. Dynamic VLAN assignment uses the standard dot1x
procedure:
1 The host sends a dot1x packet to the Dell EMC Networking system
2 The system forwards a RADIUS REQEST packet containing the host MAC address and ingress port number
3 The RADIUS server authenticates the request and returns a RADIUS ACCEPT message with the VLAN assignment using Tunnel-
Private-Group-ID
The illustration shows the conguration on the Dell EMC Networking system before connecting the end user device in black and blue text,
and after connecting the device in red text. The blue text corresponds to the preceding numbered steps on dynamic VLAN assignment
with 802.1X.
