Function

The authentication speed-limit command configures the rate limit for an authentication access device to send user association and disassociation request messages.

The undo authentication speed-limit command restores the default rate limit for an authentication access device to send user association and disassociation request messages.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

An authentication control device can connect to multiple authentication access devices. If the rate limit for an authentication access device to send user association and disassociation request messages is not specified, there will be a heavy load on the authentication control device. You can run this command to adjust the rate limit.

Precautions

This command is supported only on authentication access devices.

In an SVF system, commands cannot be configured on authentication access devices. When the access rate of users is high, they may fail to go online due to a rate limit. To lower the rate limit, run the direct-command command on the authentication control device to deliver the authentication speed-limit command configuration to the authentication access devices. This requires that the authentication access devices run V200R013C00 or a later version.

Example

# Configure the authentication access device to send a maximum of 100 association and disassociation request messages within 10 seconds.
