Syntax Description
authcontrolled-
portcontrol auto |
forced-auth |
forced-unauth
Specifies the EAPOL port control mode as:
• auto - Auto authorization mode (default). The Matrix
system will only forward frames received on a port
which are considered authenticated according to the
state of the corresponding access entity.
• forced-auth - Forced authorized mode, which
effectively disables 802.1X authentication on the port,
and allows all frames received on the port to be
forwarded.
• forced-unauth - Forced unauthorized mode, which
effectively disables 802.1X authentication on the port.
When 802.1X is the only active authentication agent on
a given port, this setting means all frames received will
be dropped.

Enables (true) or disables (false) reauthentication control
of the reauthentication timer state machine.
reauthperiod
value
Specifies the time lapse (in seconds) between attempts by
