Configures the reauthentication period for network login MAC-based authentication.
| reauth_period | Specifies time after which the switch will attempt to re-authenticate an authenticated supplicant. The range is 0, 30 to 86,400 seconds. |
| reauthentication | Configure mac reauthentication. |
| on | MAC reauthentication is enabled. |
| off | MAC reauthentication is disabled. |
| delay | Configure MAC authentication delay period. |
| delay_period | MAC authentication delay period. 0-120 seconds range. |
The default is 0 (disabled).
This command allows you to configure the reauth-period for network login MAC-based authentication. The session-timeout configuration on the RADIUS server overrides the reauth-period if it has been configured.
In MAC mode, if reauthentication is turned off, globally and per-port, using this command, a session timeout sent by RADIUS takes precedence and local timers are ignored.
The following command configures a MAC authentication delay period of 100 seconds on port 39:
configure netlogin mac ports 39 timers delay 100
