Usage Guidelines

When periodic reauthentication is enabled using the dot1x reauthentication command, the device reauthenticates the clients every 3,600 seconds by default.

The reauthentication interval is configurable using the dot1x timeout re-authperiod command. The reauthentication interval configured using the dot1x timeout re-authperiod command takes precedence.

The no dot1x reauthentication command disables periodic reauthentication.

Examples

The following example enables 802.1x reauthentication.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# interface Ethernet 1/1
device(conf-if-eth-1/1)# dot1x reauthentication
