ProSAFE FS526Tv2, FS726Tv2, and FS728TLP Smart Switches Setting Resending EAP Maximum EAP Requests Supplicant Timeout Server Timeout Control Direction Protocol Version PAE Capabilities Description The transmit period for the port. If the authenticator sends an EAPoL EAP request/identify frame to a supplicant, the transmit period starts. When the transmit period expires and the authenticator has not yet received a response from the supplicant, the frame is resent. Enter a period in the range from 1 to 65535 seconds. The default period is 30 seconds. The maximum number of requests for the port. After the maximum number of requests has been reached, the port no longer sends EAP request frames to the supplicant. Enter a number in the range from 1 to 10. The default number of requests is 2. The period after which an EAP request times out and is resent to the supplicant. Enter a period in the range from 1 to 65535 seconds. The default period is 30 seconds. Note: If the supplicant period times out, the port is still not authorized. However, if the guest VLAN period times out, the port is authorized on the guest VLAN, which provides restricted access only. The period after which an authentication server request times out and is resent to the server. Enter a period in the range from 1 to 65535 seconds. The default period is 30 seconds. This is a nonconfigurable field that shows the control direction for the port, which is fixed at Both. The control direction dictates the degree to which protocol exchanges occur between the supplicant and authenticator. The unauthorized controlled port exerts control over communication in both directions (disabling both incoming and outgoing frames). This is a nonconfigurable field that shows the protocol version that is associated with the port. The version is fixed at 1, which corresponds to the first version of the 802.1X specification. This is a nonconfigurable field that shows the port access entity (PAE): • Authenticator. The port functions as authenticator. • Supplicant. The port functions as supplicant.

ProSAFE FS526Tv2, FS726Tv2, and FS728TLP Smart Switches
Resending EAP
The transmit period for the port. If the authenticator sends an EAPoL EAP
request/identify frame to a supplicant, the transmit period starts. When the
transmit period expires and the authenticator has not yet received a response from
the supplicant, the frame is resent.
Enter a period in the range from 1 to 65535 seconds. The default period is 30
seconds.
Maximum EAP
Requests
The maximum number of requests for the port. After the maximum number of
requests has been reached, the port no longer sends EAP request frames to the
supplicant.
Enter a number in the range from 1 to 10. The default number of requests is 2.
Supplicant Timeout
The period after which an EAP request times out and is resent to the supplicant.
Enter a period in the range from 1 to 65535 seconds. The default period is 30
seconds.
Note:
If the supplicant period times out, the port is still not authorized. However,
if the guest VLAN period times out, the port is authorized on the guest VLAN,
which provides restricted access only.
Server Timeout
The period after which an authentication server request times out and is resent to
the server.
Enter a period in the range from 1 to 65535 seconds. The default period is 30
seconds.
Control Direction
This is a nonconfigurable field that shows the control direction for the port, which is
fixed at Both. The control direction dictates the degree to which protocol
exchanges occur between the supplicant and authenticator. The unauthorized
controlled port exerts control over communication in both directions (disabling both
incoming and outgoing frames).
Protocol Version
This is a nonconfigurable field that shows the protocol version that is associated
with the port. The version is fixed at 1, which corresponds to the first version of the
802.1X specification.
PAE Capabilities
This is a nonconfigurable field that shows the port access entity (PAE):
•
Authenticator
. The port functions as authenticator.
•
Supplicant
. The port functions as supplicant.
