specified port to determine when to send an EAPOL EAP Request/Identity frame to
the supplicant. The transmit period range is 1 to 65535.

Supplicant Timeout (secs)

Displays the configured supplicant timeout for the selected port. The supplicant
timeout is the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the authenticator state machine
on this port to timeout the supplicant. The supplicant timeout range is 1 to 65535.

Server Timeout (secs)

Displays the configured server timeout for the selected port. The server timeout is
the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the authenticator on this port to timeout
the authentication server. The server timeout range is 1 to 65535.

Maximum Requests

Displays the configured maximum requests for the selected port. The maximum
requests value is the maximum number of times the authenticator state machine on
this port will retransmit an EAPOL EAP Request/Identity before timing out the
supplicant. The maximum requests value range is 1 to 10.

Reauthentication Period (secs)

Displays the configured reauthentication period for the selected port. The
reauthentication period is the value, in seconds, of the timer used by the
authenticator state machine on this port to determine when reauthentication of the
supplicant takes place. The reauthentication period value range is 1 to 65535.

Reauthentication Enabled

Indicates whether reauthentication is enabled on the selected port. If you select the
value true reauthentication will occur. Otherwise, reauthentication will not be
allowed.

Control Direction

Displays the control direction for the specified port. The control direction dictates
the degree to which protocol exchanges take place between supplicant and
authenticator. This affects whether the controlled port exerts control over
communication in both directions (disabling both incoming and outgoing frames) or
just incoming (disabling only the reception of incoming frames). This field is not
configurable on some platforms.

Protocol Version

Displays the protocol version associated with the selected port. The only possible
value is 1, corresponding to the first version of the IEE 802.1X specification.

PAE Capabilities
