Operation Manual – 802.1x-System Guard
H3C S3100 Series Ethernet Switches
Chapter 1 802.1x Configuration
1-22
1) The switch uses the value of the Session-timeout attribute field of the
Access-Accept packet sent by the RADIUS server as the re-authentication
interval.
2) The switch uses the value configured with the
dot1x timer reauth-period
command as the re-authentication interval for access users.
Note the following:
During re-authentication, the switch always uses the latest re-authentication interval
configured, no matter which of the above-mentioned two ways is used to determine the
re-authentication interval. For example, if you configure a re-authentication interval on
the switch and the switch receives an Access-Accept packet whose Termination-Action
attribute field is 1, the switch will ultimately use the value of the Session-timeout
attribute field as the re-authentication interval.
The following introduces how to configure the 802.1x re-authentication timer on the
switch.
