Usage guidelines
This command enables access users (802.1X or MAC authentication users) of a port to come online
and access the network even if they use nonexistent usernames or incorrect passwords.
Access users that come online in open authentication mode are called open users. Authorization and
accounting are not available for open users. To display open user information, use the following
commands:
•
display dot1x connection open.
•
display mac-authentication connection open.
Open authentication mode does not affect the access of users that use correct user information on
the port.
The open authentication mode setting has lower priority than the 802.1X Auth-Fail VLAN and the
MAC authentication guest VLAN. Open authentication mode does not take effect on a port if the port
is also configured with the 802.1X Auth-Fail VLAN or the MAC authentication guest VLAN.
For information about 802.1X authentication or MAC authentication, see Security Configuration
Guide.
