II. Configuring the maximum retry times for the switch to send version request
frame to the client
After sending client version request frame for the first time, if the switch receives no
response from the client response within a certain period of time (set by the version
authentication timeout timer), it resends version request again. When the switch
receives no response for the configured maximum times, it no longer authenticates the
version of the client, and perform the following authentications.
If configured, this command functions on all ports that enabled version authentication
function.
Perform the following in system view.
