7. Select the Reauthentication tab as required to define authentication connection policies,
intervals and maximum retries.
8. Select the Radius Accounting tab as required to define a timeout period and retry interval
Syslog for MUs interoperating with the AP-5131 and EAP authentication server.
MU Tx Period
(1-65635) secs
Specify the time period (in seconds) for the AP-5131's
retransmission of the EAP Identity Request frame. The default is 5
seconds.
MU Max Retries
(1-10) retries
Specify the maximum number of times the AP-5131 retransmits an
EAP-Request frame to the client before it times out the
authentication session. The default is 2 retries.
Server Timeout
(1-255) secs
Specify the time (in seconds) for the AP-5131's retransmission of
EAP-Request packets to the server. The default is 5 seconds. If this
time is exceeded, the authetnication session is terminated.
Server Max Retries
(1-255 retries)
Specify the maximum number of times for the AP-5131 to
retransmit an EAP-Request frame to the server before it times out
the authentication session. The default is 2 retries.
Enable
Reauthentication
Select the Enable Reauthentication checkbox to configure a
wireless connection policy so MUs are forced to reauthenticate
periodically. Periodic repetition of the EAP process provides
ongoing security for current authorized connections.
Period (30-9999) secs Set the EAP reauthentication period to a shorter time interval (at
least 30 seconds) for tighter security on the WLAN's connections.
Set the EAP reauthentication period to a longer time interval (at
most, 9999 seconds) to relax security on wireless connections. The
reauthentication period setting does not affect wireless connection
throughput. The default is 3600 seconds.
Max. Retries (1-99)
retries
Define the maximum number of MU retries to reauthenticate after
failing to complete the EAP process. Failure to reauthenticate in the
specified number of retries results in a terminated connection. The
default is 2 retries.
Enable Accounting Select the Enable Accounting checkbox to implement the MU
timeout and retry definitions configured within the Radius
Accounting field.
