When the port operates in the userlogin-withoui mode, Intrusion Protection will not be triggered
even if the OUI address does not match.
On a port operating in either the macAddressElseUserLoginSecure mode or the
macAddressElseUserLoginSecureExt mode, Intrusion Protection is triggered only after both
MAC-based authentication and 802.1x authentication on the same packet fail.

Description
In this mode, a port performs MAC
authentication of an access user first. If the
authentication succeeds, the user is
authenticated. Otherwise, the port performs
802.1x authentication of the user.
In this mode, there can be only one
802.1x-authenticated user on the port, but
there can be several MAC-authenticated
users.
This mode is similar to the
macAddressElseUserLoginSecure mode,
except that there can be more than one
802.1x-authenticated user on the port.
In this mode, a port firstly performs MAC
authentication for a user and then performs
802.1x authentication for the user if the user
passes MAC authentication. The user can
access the network after passing the two
authentications.
In this mode, up to one user can access the
network.
This mode is similar to the
macAddressAndUserLoginSecure mode,
except that more than one user can access
the network.
