web-authentication logout polling count
Specifies the number of times a Switch retransmits the monitoring frame when there is no
response to a monitoring frame that periodically checks a connection status of
authenticated terminals.
Syntax
To set or change information:
web-authentication logout polling count <Count>
To delete information:
no web-authentication logout polling count
Input mode
(config)
Parameters
<Count>
Sets the number of times a Switch retransmits a monitoring frame when there is no
response to a monitoring frame.
1. Default value when this parameter is omitted:
This parameter cannot be omitted.
2. Range of values:
1 to 10 (times)
Default behavior
The monitoring frame is retransmitted a maximum of three times.
Impact on communication
None
When the change is applied
The setting takes effect the first time no response is detected following the change of value.
Notes
1. All Web authentication settings take effect when the web-authentication
system-auth-control command is set.
2. See Table 23-1 Configuration commands and Web authentication modes for the
authentication mode in which the command's settings are operable.
3. If the link for a monitored terminal goes down before periodic monitoring by the
functionality that monitors the connection of authenticated terminals arrives, the
Switch stops monitoring the terminal and logs it out due to its link-down state.
4. When the specified maximum connection time (set by using the
web-authentication max-timer command) expires, the Switch stops monitoring
the applicable terminal and logs it out.
5. If the number of retransmissions when a no-response state is detected is set to the
maximum, the number of monitoring frames increases proportionately with the
number of authenticated users, overloading the Switch.
Set the polling interval by using the following formula as a guide:
