Enabling Periodic Reauthentication
You can enable periodic 802.1x client reauthentication and specify how often it occurs. If you do not
specify a time period before enabling reauthentication, the number of seconds between reauthentication
attempts is 3600 seconds.
Automatic 802.1x client reauthentication is a global setting and cannot be set for clients connected to
individual ports.
Follow these steps to enable periodic reauthentication of the client and to configure the number of
seconds between reauthentication attempts.
