Multiple traffic policies may be applied to a user role. When multiple traffic
policies are applied, they behave as a single policy – that is, once a rule is
matched in the policy and action is taken, no further rules are processed in the
policy. Rules are executed from top to bottom, so the placement of rules
within a policy and of policies within a user role is important. When multiple
traffic policies are applied to a user role, their position within the role may be
adjusted using the up and down arrows, as shown in the figure below.

Re-authentication Interval – By default, once a user has been authenticated
that user will remain authenticated until the login session is terminated. If this
parameter is set, re-authentication will be required on a periodic basis. If
re-authentication is unsuccessful, the user will be denied access to the
network.
