Web Interface – Configuration
4.29.1 System Configuration
Set or show the NAS system configuration parameters.
Mode Set or show the NAS mode: Enabled: NAS is globally enabled on the switchstack Disabled: NAS is globally disabled on the switchstack (This is the default mode.) If globally disabled, all ports are allowed forwarding of frames. Reauthentication Enabled Reauthentication for 802.1X-enabled ports can be used to detect if a new device is plugged into a switch port or if a supplicant is no longer attached. For MAC-based ports, reauthentication is only useful if the RADIUS server configuration has changed. It does not involve communication between the switch and the client, and therefore doesn ’ t imply that a client is still present on a port. Successfully authenticated supplicants/clients are reauthenticated after the interval specified by the Reauthentication Period
Supplicants/clients are not reauthenticated (This is the default.)
Reauthentication Period Set or show the period, in seconds, after which a connected client must be reauthenticated. This is only active if the Reauthentication Enabled checkbox is checked. Valid values are in the range 1 to 3600 seconds. EAPOL Timeout Set or show the time for retransmission of Request Identity EAPOL frames. Valid values are in the range 1 to 65535 seconds. This has no effect on MAC-based ports. Aging Period The Port Security module frees resources if no activity within a given period of time. The Aging Period parameter controls exactly this period and can be set to a number between 10 and 1000000 seconds. This setting applies to modes using the Port Security functionality to secure MAC addresses:
Single 802.1X
¾
Multi 802.1X
¾
¾ MAC-Based Auth When the NAS module uses the Port Security module to secure MAC addresses, the Port Security module checks the specified MAC address at regular intervals, to see if there is activity.
