Usage Guidelines

When the RADIUS server delivers session-timeout with value 0:

If the aaa-author session-timeout invalid-value enable command is not configured, the session-timeout attribute delivered by the server does not take effect and the period for disconnecting or reauthenticating users depends on the device configuration.
If the aaa-author session-timeout invalid-value enable command is configured, the session-timeout attribute delivered by the server takes effect and the device does not disconnect or reauthenticate users.

You can run the dot1x timer reauthenticate-period reauthenticate-period-value or mac-authen timer reauthenticate-period reauthenticate-period-value command to configure the period for disconnecting or reauthenticating users on the device.

Example

# Prevent the device from disconnecting or reauthenticating users when the RADIUS server delivers session-timeout with value 0.
