•
Enable the unicast trigger on a port if only a few 802.1X clients are attached to the port and
these clients cannot initiate authentication.
•
To avoid duplicate authentication packets, do not enable both triggers on a port.
Configuration procedure
To configure the authentication trigger feature on a port:
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.

N/A
2.
(Optional.) Set the username
request timeout timer.
dot1x timer tx-period
tx-period-value
The default is 30 seconds.
3.
Enter Layer 2 Ethernet
interface view.

interface-number
N/A
4.
Enable an authentication
trigger.
dot1x
{

unicast-trigger
}
By default, the multicast trigger is
enabled, and the unicast trigger is
disabled.
Specifying a mandatory authentication domain on
a port
You can place all 802.1X users in a mandatory authentication domain for authentication,
authorization, and accounting on a port. No user can use an account in any other domain to access
the network through the port. The implementation of a mandatory authentication domain enhances
the flexibility of 802.1X access control deployment.
To specify a mandatory authentication domain for a port:
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.

N/A
2.
Enter Layer 2 Ethernet
interface view.
interface

N/A
3.
Specify a mandatory 802.1X
authentication domain on the
port.
dot1x mandatory-domain
domain-name
By default, no mandatory 802.1X
authentication domain is
specified.
Configuring the quiet timer
The quiet timer enables the access device to wait a period of time before it can process any
authentication request from a client that has failed an 802.1X authentication.
You can edit the quiet timer, depending on the network conditions.
•
In a vulnerable network, set the quiet timer to a high value.
•
In a high-performance network with quick authentication response, set the quiet timer to a low
value.
To configure the quiet timer:
