Use the workgroup-bridge timeouts eap-timeout global configuration command to fine tune the EAP

timeout for WGB. This CLI command is applicable to an AP working in WGB mode.

Command Modes Global configuration

Command History

Usage Guidelines This is the timeout to complete the full EAP authentication on a workgroup bridge.

This value highly depends on the EAP authentication algorithm. Ensure that you understand the

deployment scenario (depending on the turn-around time to the radius server and the number of

transactions) and use this command appropriately. If you want to use 802.1x EAP, you should not assign

a timeout value of less than 30 seconds.

When this command is used along with the CLI command “mobile station scan period <>”, it is

suggested to use “scan period” > “eap timeout”.

Examples This example shows how to assign an EAP timeout on a workgroup bridge:

wgb(config)# workgroup-bridge timeouts eap-timeout 20

sec Enter a number from 2 to 600.
