Description

Use this command to set the time in seconds after which a switch attempts to perform 
authentication after a failed authentication. Use the no dot1x quiet-period command to return to 
the default setting. When a switch cannot authenticate a client, the switch remains idle for a 
quiet-period interval of time, then attempts the operation again. 

Usage

Guidelines

Changing the quiet-period interval time to a number lower than the default can result in a faster 
response time.

Examples

To change the interval time to 200 seconds:

switch(config)#interface tengigabiethernet 0/1

switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#dot1x quiet-period 200
