Port Configuration
The table has one row for each port on the selected switch and a number of columns, which are:
Object
 Port
 Admin State
A Guest VLAN is a special VLAN - typically with limited network access - on
which 802.1X-unaware clients are placed after a network administrator-defined
timeout. The switch follows a set of rules for entering and leaving the Guest
VLAN as listed below.
The "Guest VLAN Enabled" checkbox provides a quick way to globally
enable/disable Guest VLAN functionality. When checked, the individual ports'
ditto setting determines whether the port can be moved into Guest VLAN. When
unchecked, the ability to move to the Guest VLAN is disabled for all ports.
This is the value that a port's Port VLAN ID is set to if a port is moved into the
Guest VLAN. It is only changeable if the Guest VLAN option is globally enabled.
Valid values are in the range [1; 4095].
The number of times that the switch transmits an EAPOL Request Identity frame
without response before considering entering the Guest VLAN is adjusted with
this setting. The value can only be changed if the Guest VLAN option is globally
enabled.
Valid values are in the range [1; 255].
The switch remembers if an EAPOL frame has been received on the port for the
lifetime of the port. Once the switch considers whether to enter the Guest VLAN,
it will first check if this option is enabled or disabled. If disabled (unchecked;
default), the switch will only enter the Guest VLAN if an EAPOL frame has not
been received on the port for the lifetime of the port. If enabled (checked), the
switch will consider entering the Guest VLAN even if an EAPOL frame has been
received on the port for the lifetime of the port.
The value can only be changed if the Guest VLAN option is globally enabled.

In this mode, the switch will send one EAPOL Success frame when the port link
comes up, and any client on the port will be allowed network access without
