Switch 7700 Configuration Guide
IEEE 802.1x 183
By default, the quiet-period-value is 60 seconds, the tx-period-value is 30 seconds,
the supp-timeout-value is 30 seconds, the server-timeout-value is 100 seconds.
Enabling/Disabling Quiet-Period Timer
You can use the following commands to enable/disable a quiet-period timer of the
Switch 7700. If an 802.1x user has not passed authentication, the Authenticator
will keep quiet (specified by quiet-period) before launching the authentication
again. During the quiet period, the Authenticator does not do anything related to
802.1x authentication.
Perform the following configuration in system view.
Displaying and
Debugging 802.1x
After the above configuration, execute the display command in all views to
display the VLAN configuration, and to verify configuration. Execute the reset
command in user view to reset 802.1x statistics information. Execute the
debugging command in user view to debug the 802.1x module.
Example: 802.1x
Configuration
As shown in the following figure, the workstation is connected to the 1/0/2 of the
Switch 7700.
The switch administrator will enable 802.1x on all the ports to authenticate the
supplicants to control their access to the Internet. The access control mode is
based on the MAC address.
All the supplicants belong to the default domain 3com163.net, which can contain
up to 30 users. RADIUS authentication is performed first. If there is no response
from the RADIUS server, local authentication will be performed. For accounting, if
the RADIUS server fails to account, the user will be disconnected. In addition,
when the user is connected, the domain name does not follow the user name.
Normally, if the user’s traffic is less than 2kbps consistently over 20 minutes, he will
be disconnected.
