If you enable re-authentication, thesupplicant is required to re-authenticate every 3600 seconds by default, and you can configure thisinterval. You can configure the maximum number of re-authentications as well.To configure re-authentication time settings, use the following commands:• Configure the authenticator to periodically re-authenticate the supplicant.INTERFACE modedot1x reauthentication [interval] secondsThe range is from 1 to 65535.The default is 3600.• Configure the maximum number of times the supplicant can be re-authenticated.INTERFACE modedot1x reauth-max numberThe range is from 1 to 10.The default is 2.Example of Re-Authenticating a Port and Verifying the ConfigurationThe bold lines show that re-authentication is enabled and the new maximum and re-authentication timeperiod.Dell(conf-if-Te-1/1/1)#dot1x reauthentication interval 7200Dell(conf-if-Te-1/1/1)#dot1x reauth-max 1090 802.1X
