We can see this by “show conf eapol”. This will (read: may) slow your prompts for reauthentication. You may also need to refer to your N-chassis CLI guide for the correct commands and usage.

First off, I would make sure the firmware is up-to-date. The issue we had though was EAP packets hitting the ports on the switch and causing any attached PC’s to re-authenticate. The timing was about every 30 seconds, which sounds similar to what you are seeing. Might want to give that a look.
