Function

The dot1x quiet-times command sets the maximum number of authentication failures within 60 seconds before an 802.1X user enters the quiet state.

The undo dot1x quiet-times command restores the default setting.

By default, an 802.1X user enters the quiet state after 10 authentication failures within 60 seconds.

Usage Guidelines

After the quiet timer function of the device is enabled using the dot1x quiet-period command, if the number of authentication failures of an 802.1X user exceeds the value that is set using the dot1x quiet-times command within 60 seconds, the user enters the quiet state. This prevents the impact on the system due to frequent user authentication.

Example

# Set the maximum number of authentication failures within 60 seconds before an 802.1X user enters the quiet state to 4.
