(reauth-period) is 0 (disabled), re-authentication is forcibly performed.
Syntax
reauthenticate dot1x [{port <Port# list> | channel-group-number <Channel group# list> | vlan
dynamic [<VLAN ID list>]} | supplicant-mac <MAC>}] [-f]
Input mode
User mode and administrator mode
Parameters
{port <Port# list> | channel-group-number <Channel group# list> | dynamic [<VLAN
ID list>
]} | supplicant-mac <MAC>}
port <Port# list>
Initiates re-authentication for the ports specified in list format for port-based
authentication. For details about how to specify <Port# list> and the
specifiable range of values, see Specifiable values for parameters.
channel-group-number <Channel group# list>

port-based authentication. For details about how to specify <Channel group#
list>, see Specifiable values for parameters.
vlan dynamic <VLAN ID list>
Re-authenticates the authentication status of the VLANs specified in list
format for VLAN-based authentication (dynamic).
For details about how to specify <VLAN ID list>, see Specifiable values for
parameters.
If <VLAN ID list> is omitted, re-authentication for all VLANs for VLAN-based
authentication (dynamic) is initiated.
supplicant-mac <MAC>
Re-authenticates the authentication status of the specified MAC address.
-f
Initiates re-authentication without displaying a confirmation message.
Operation when this parameter is omitted:
