View

Parameter
max-retry-value: Maximum number of times that a switch sends authentication request
packets to online supplicant systems. This argument ranges from 1 to 10 and defaults
to 2.
Description
Use the dot1x retry command to specify the maximum number of times that a switch
will send authentication request packets to supplicant systems.
Use the undo dot1x retry command to revert to the default value.
Having sent authentication request packets to a supplicant system, a switch will resend
the packets if within a preset period it still has not received any response from the
supplicant system. The dot1x retry command is used to set the maximum number of
times that a switch will resend the request packets. When set to 1, it means that the
switch will send request packets only once, and when set to 2, it means that the switch
will resend the packets once if no response comes back, and so on. This command
applies to all ports.
Related command: display dot1x.
Example
# Specify the maximum number of times that the switch will resend authentication
request packets to be 9.
