Configurable Data
Start Period (secs)
- This input field allows the user to configure the start period for the selected port.
This command sets the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the Supplicant state machine on this
port to define periods of time after which it will send start message again on Authenticator absence.
The start period must be a number in the range of 1 and 65535. The default value is 30 seconds.
Changing the value will not change the configuration until the Submit button is pressed.
Held Period (secs)
- This input field allows the user to configure the Held period for the selected port.
The held period is the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the supplicant state machine on the
specified port to determine when to send the next EAPOL start frame to the Authenticator on previous
authentication failure. The Held period must be a number in the range of 1 and 65535. The default
value is 60 seconds. Changing the value will not change the configuration until the Submit button is
pressed.
Authentication Period (secs)
- This input field allows the user to configure the Authentication period
for the selected port. The Authentication period is the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the
supplicant backend state machine on the specified port to determine the timeout value for the EAPOL
messages that are sent out to the Authenticator. The Authentication period must be a number in the
range of 1 and 65535. The default value is 30 seconds. Changing the value will not change the
configuration until the Submit button is pressed.

- This input field allows the user to configure the Maximum start messages that
can be sent on the selected port. The maximum start request value is the maximum number of start
messages to be sent continuously to detect the presence/absence of the Authenticator. The
maximum start requests value must be in the range of 1 and 10. The default value is 3.
