Usage Guidelines
Per IEEE 802.1D, Summit "e" series switches do not forward EAPOL frames. Also, if network login is
enabled, EAPOL flooding cannot be enabled. Also, if network login is enabled, EAPOL flooding cannot
be enabled. However, under certain conditions, you might opt to change this behavior to support an
upstream central authenticator by enabling the switch to flood the EAPOL frame on the VLAN
associated with the ingress port.
