The following table describes the fields of port-based EAPOL tab.
Variable | Value | |
---|---|---|
PortProtocolVersion | Specifies the EAP Protocol version running on this port. | |
PortCapabilities | Specifies the PAE functionality implemented on this port. Always returns dot1xPaePortAuthCapable(0). | |
PortInitialize | Initializes the port EAPOL state.
|
|
PortReauthenticateNow | Reauthenticates the client.
|
|
PaeState | Specifies the current authenticator PAE state machine state value. | |
BackendAuthState | Specifies the current state of the Backend Authentication state machine. | |
AdminControlledDirections | Specifies the current value of the administrative controlled directions parameter for the port. Available options are
|
|
OperControlledDirections | Specifies the current value of the operational controlled directions parameter for the port. | |
AuthControlledPortStatus | Specifies the current value of the controlled port status parameter for the port. | |
AuthControlledPortControl | Specifies the current value of the controlled port control parameter for the port. Available options are:
|
|
QuietPeriod | Specifies the current value of the time interval between authentication failure and new authentication start. Value ranges between 0 and 65535 seconds. Default value is 60 seconds. | |
TransmitPeriod | Specifies the time period to wait for a response from the supplicant for EAP requests/Identity packets. Value ranges between 0 and 65535 seconds. Default value is 30 seconds. | |
Supplicant Timeout | Specifies the time period to wait for a response from the supplicant for all EAP packets except EAP Request/Identity. The default is 30 seconds. The time interval can be between 1 and 65535 seconds. | |
ServerTimeout | Specifies the time period to wait for a response from the RADIUS server. The default is 30 seconds. The time interval can be between 1 and 65535 seconds. | |

ReAuthenticationEnabled | Specifies if reauthentication is required.
|
|
KeyTxEnabled | Specifies the value of the KeyTranmissionEnabled constant currently in use by the Authenticator PAE state machine. This always returns a value of False because key transmission is irrelevant. | |
LastEapolFrameVersion | Specifies the protocol version number carried in the most recently received EAPOL frame. | |
LastEapolFrameSource | Specifies the source MAC address carried in the most recently received EAPOL frame. |
