Enabling/Disabling Quiet-Period Timer
You can use the following commands to enable/disable a quiet-period timer of the
Switch 7700. If an 802.1x user has not passed authentication, the Authenticator
will keep quiet (specified by quiet-period) before launching the authentication
again. During the quiet period, the Authenticator does not do anything related to
802.1x authentication.
Perform the following configuration in system view.
