The following table describes the labels in this screen.

ReAuthentication 
Timer 

Specify how often wireless stations have to resend user names and 
passwords in order to stay connected. 

The default value is 0, which means the reauthentication off. 

Note: If wireless station authentication is done using a RADIUS 

server, the reauthentication timer on the RADIUS server 
has priority. 

Idle Timeout

The NWA automatically disconnects a wireless station from the 
wired network after a period of inactivity. The wireless station 
needs to enter the user name and password again before access to 
the wired network is allowed. 

The default time interval is 3600 seconds (or 1 hour).
