GS716Tv2 and GS724Tv3 Software Administration Manual Table 5-18. Port Authentication Port Configuration Fields Field Port Port Control Guest VLAN ID Guest VLAN Period Periodic Reauthentication Reauthentication Period (secs) Quiet Period (secs) Resending EAP Description Selects the Port to configure. Defines the port authorization state. The control mode is only set if the link status of the port is link up. The possible field values are: • Auto: Automatically detects the mode of the interface. • Authorized: Places the interface into an authorized state without being authenticated. The interface sends and receives normal traffic without client port-based authentication. • Unauthorized: Denies the selected interface system access by moving the interface into unauthorized state. The switch cannot provide authentication services to the client through the interface. This field allows the user to configure the Guest VLAN ID on the interface. The valid range is 0-4093.The default value is 0. Enter 0 to reset the Guest VLAN ID on the interface. This input field allows the user to enter the Guest VLAN period for the selected port. The Guest VLAN period is the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the Guest VLAN Authentication. The Guest VLAN timeout must be a value in the range of 1-300. The default value is 90. Use this field to enable or disable reauthentication of the supplicant for the specified port. Selectable values are Enable and Disable. If the value is Enable, reauthentication will occur. Otherwise, reauthentication will not be allowed. The default value is Disable. Changing the selection will not change the configuration until the Apply button is pressed. Indicates the time span in which the selected port is reauthenticated. The field value is in seconds. The range is 1-65535, and the field default is 3600 seconds. Defines the amount of time that the switch remains in the quiet state following a failed authentication exchange. The possible field range is 0-65535. The field value is in seconds. The field default is 60 seconds. This input field allows you to configure the transmit period for the selected port. The transmit period is the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the authenticator state machine on the specified port to determine when to send an EAPOL EAP Request/Identify frame to the supplicant. The transmit period must be a number in the range of 1- 65535. The default value is 30. Changing the value will not change the configuration until you click the Apply button. 5-26 v1.0, July 2009 Managing Device Security

5-18. Port Authentication Port Configuration Fields
Field
Description
Port
Selects the Port to configure.
Port Control
Defines the port authorization state. The control mode is only set if the
link status of the port is link up. The possible field values are:
Auto
: Automatically detects the mode of the interface.
Authorized
: Places the interface into an authorized state without
being authenticated. The interface sends and receives normal traffic
without client port-based authentication.
Unauthorized
: Denies the selected interface system access by
moving the interface into unauthorized state. The switch cannot
provide authentication services to the client through the interface.
Guest VLAN ID
This field allows the user to configure the Guest VLAN ID on the
interface. The valid range is 0–4093.The default value is 0. Enter 0 to
reset the Guest VLAN ID on the interface.
Guest VLAN Period
This input field allows the user to enter the Guest VLAN period for the
selected port. The Guest VLAN period is the value, in seconds, of the
timer used by the Guest VLAN Authentication. The Guest VLAN
timeout must be a value in the range of 1–300. The default value is 90.
Periodic Reauthentication
Use this field to enable or disable
reauthentication of the supplicant for
the specified port. Selectable values are
Enable
and
Disable
. If the
value is
Enable
, reauthentication will occur. Otherwise,
reauthentication will not be allowed. The default value is
Disable
.
Changing the selection will not change the configuration until the

following a failed authentication exchange. The possible field range is
0–65535. The field value is in seconds. The field default is 60 seconds.
Resending EAP
This input field allows you to configure the transmit period for the
selected port. The transmit period is the value, in seconds, of the timer
used by the authenticator state machine on the specified port to
determine when to send an EAPOL EAP Request/Identify frame to the
supplicant. The transmit period must be a number in the range of 1–
65535. The default value is 30. Changing the value will not change the
