Usage Guidelines

You can force Web Authenticated hosts to be reauthenticated if they have been inactive for a period of time. The inactive duration is calculated by adding the mac-age-time that has been configured for the device and the configured authenticated-mac-age-time. The mac-age-time command defines how long a port address remains active in the address table. If the authenticated host is inactive for the sum of these two values, the host is forced to be reauthenticated.

The no form of the command sets the time to the default of 3600 seconds.

Examples

The following example configures the time duration after which the user-associated MAC addressed is aged out and reauthentication is enforced.

device(config)# mac-age-time 600
device(config)# vlan 10
device(config-vlan-10)# webauth
device(config-vlan-10-webauth)# reauth-time 303
device(config-vlan-10-webauth)# authenticated-mac-age-time 300
