1.2.9 Set the handshake period of 802.1x
The following commands are used to set the handshake period of 802.1x. After setting
handshake-period, system will send the handshake packet by the period. Suppose the
dot1x retry time is configured as N, the system will consider the user having logged off
and set the user as logoff state if system doesn’t receive the response of user for
consecutive N times.
Perform the following configurations in system view.

quiet-period
: Specify the quiet timer. If an 802.1x user has not passed the
authentication, the Authenticator will keep quiet for a while (which is specified by
quiet-period
timer) before launching the authentication again. During the quiet period,
the Authenticator does not do anything related to 802.1x authentication.
quiet-period-value
: Specify how long the quiet period is. The value ranges from 10 to
120 in units of second.
server-timeout
: Specify the timeout timer of an Authentication Server. If an
Authentication Server has not responded before the specified period expires, the
Authenticator will resend the authentication request.
