Control Mode

controlled port to unauthorized
force authorized:

auto:
The authenticator PAE sets the controlled port mode to reflect the outcome of the
authentication exchanges between the supplicant, authenticator, and the authentication
server.

the authentication exchanges between the supplicant, authenticator, and the authentication
server on a per supplicant basis.
Reauthentication Enabled
- This field allows the user to enable or disable reauthentication of the
supplicant for the specified port. The selectable values are 'true' and 'false'. If the value is 'true'

port. This command sets the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the authenticator state machine
on this port to define periods of time in which it will not attempt to acquire a supplicant. The quiet
period is the period for which the authenticator does not attempt to acquire a supplicant after a failed
authentication exchange with the supplicant. The quiet period must be a number in the range of 0
and 65535. A quiet period value of 0 means that the authenticator state machine will never acquire a
