set multiauth session-timeout
Use this command to set the maximum number of seconds an authenticated session may last
before termination of the session.

set multiauth session-timeout [ dot1x | mac | pwa ] timeout
Parameters
Defaults
If no authentication method is specified, the session timeout value is set for all authentication
methods.
Mode
Switch mode, read ‐ write.
Usage
A value of zero may be superseded by a session timeout value provided by the authenticating
server. For example, if a session is authenticated by a RADIUS server, that server may encode a
Session ‐ Timeout Attribute in its authentication response.
Example
This example sets the session timeout value for the IEEE 802.1X authentication method to 300
seconds.
C3(su)->set multiauth session-timeout dot1x 300
dot1x (Optional) Specifies the IEEE 802.1X port ‐ based network access control
authentication method for which to set the session timeout value.
mac (Optional) Specifies the Enterasys MAC authentication method for
which to set the session timeout value.
pwa (Optional) Specifies the Enterasys Port Web Authentication method for
which to set the session timeout value.
timeout Specifies the timeout value in seconds. The value can range from 0 to
65535. A value of 0 means that no session timeout will be applied unless
a session timeout value is provided by the authenticating server.
