Default Description
ap-role Select the default role to be assigned to the user after completing 802.1x
authentication.
This setting requires a policy enforcement firewall license.
30 Specify the interval in which identity requests are to be spaced between
each other.
30 Specify the amount of time in seconds in which failed authentication
denies access to a user, after failed authentication.
86,400 Select this option to force the client to do a 802.1x re-authentication after
seconds the expiration of the default timer for re-authentication. The default value
of the timer (Reauthentication Interval) is 24 hours. If the user fails to re-
authenticate with valid credentials, the state of the user is cleared.
If derivation rules are used to classify 802.1x-authenticated users, then the
Reauthentication timer per role overrides this setting.
No 802.1x re-authentication can be attempted after the expiration of the
default timer for re-authentication. Specify whether this is to be supported
from the authentication server.
No Define whether Multicast Key Rotation is enabled or disabled.
When enabled, unicast and multicast keys are updated after each
reauthorization. It is a best practice to configure the time intervals for
reauthentication, multicast key rotation, and unicast key rotation to be at
least 15 minutes.
1800 When enabled, unicast and multicast keys are updated after each
reauthorization. It is a best practice to configure the time intervals for
reauthentication, multicast key rotation, and unicast key rotation to be at
least 15 minutes. Make sure these intervals are mutually prime, and the
factor of the unicast key rotation interval and the multicast key rotation
interval is less than the reauthentication interval.
900
30 Specify the interface at which reauthentication is supported. The
supported range is from 1 to 6,535 seconds.
2 Define the number of times that failed authentication should be allowed to
retry authentication.
1100 Define the size, in bytes, for framed maximum transmission units.
3 Define the number of allowable times that failed ID requests are allowed to
retry the request.
3 Set the number of times that reauthentication is to be attempted if the first
authentication attempt fails.
