Requested revision
| Standard: | 802.1X-2010 | Clause: | 13.5 |
| Clause title: | Definitions for PAE MIB | ||
Rationale for revision
The description of ieee8021XAuthPaeReAuthEnabled says it should always return ‘false’. This object is used to enable and disable periodic reauthentication, but if it is always ‘false’, how can a manager know if periodic reauthentication is enabled or disabled?
Proposed text
Omit the requirement to always return ‘false’:
ieee8021XAuthPaeReAuthEnabled OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX TruthValue
MAX-ACCESS read-write
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
“This object is set ‘true’ if PACP should initiate
reauthentication periodically, ‘false’ otherwise.”
REFERENCE “IEEE 802.1X Clause 8.9, Figure 12-3”
