Dell N3200-ON EMC Networking N-Series Switches CLI Reference Guide version 6.6 - Page 1013

This command sets the limit for retring failed authentications for RADIUS. The switch attempts authentication based on the selected method and if authentication returns an error (as opposed to a failure), the next authentication method is attempted regardless of this setting. For example, if one or multiple RADIUS servers are configured and no RADIUS server responds to the authentication message, RADIUS returns an error and the next authentication method is attempted even when the retry parameter is configured to a value larger than 1. Example The following example configures the switch to allow IEEE 802.1X supplicants to fail authentication (e.g., enter incorrect passwords) three times before invoking the quiet timer on the interface. console#conf console(config)#authentication enable console(config)#interface gi1/0/3 console(config-if-Gi1/0/3)#authentication order dot1x console(config-if-Gi1/0/3)#authentication event fail retry 3 Command History Introduced in version 6.3.0.1 firmware. auth-port Use the auth-port command in RADIUS Server Configuration mode to set the port number on which the RADIUS server listens for authentication requests.
