seconds
The number of seconds an authenticated user remains authenticated. The valid values are from 0 through 128,000 seconds. The default is 28,800.

Web Authentication configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

After a successful authentication, a user remains authenticated for a duration of time. At the end of this duration, the host is automatically logged off. The user must be reauthenticated again.

Setting a value of 0 means the user is always authenticated and will never have to reauthenticate, except if an inactive period less than the reauthentication period is configured on the Web Authentication VLAN. If this is the case, the user becomes deauthenticated if there is no activity and the timer for the inactive period expires.

The no form of the command sets the value to the default.

Examples

The following example configures the reauthentication time as 300 seconds.

device(config)# vlan 10
device(config-vlan-10)# webauth
device(config-vlan-10-webauth)# reauth-time 300
