config dot1x port controldir

This command configures the control direction for the specified port or ports. The control

direction dictates the degree to which protocol exchanges take place between Supplicant and

Authenticator. This affects whether the unauthorized controlled port exerts control over

communication in both directions (disabling both incoming and outgoing frames) or just in the

incoming direction (disabling only the reception of incoming frames).

Default both

Format config dot1x port controldir <slot.port/all> <both/in>

config dot1x port controlmode

This command sets the authentication mode to be used on the specified port or ports. The control

mode may be one of the following:

forceunauthorized: The authenticator port access entity (PAE) unconditionally sets the controlled

port to unauthorized

forceauthorized: The authenticator PAE unconditionally sets the controlled port to authorized.

auto: The authenticator PAE sets the controlled port mode to reflect the outcome of the

authentication exchanges between the supplicant, authenticator, and the authentication server.

Default auto

Format config dot1x port controlmode <slot.port/all> <forceunauthorized/

forceauthorized/auto>

config dot1x port quietperiod

This command sets the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the authenticator state machine on

this port to define periods of time in which it will not attempt to acquire a supplicant. The quiet

period is the period for which the authenticator does not attempt to acquire a supplicant after a

failed authentication exchange with the supplicant. The quiet period must be a value in the range

of 0 and 65535.

Default 60

Format config dot1x port quietperiod <slot.port> <0-65535>
