Configuring an Authenticator and a Supplicant Switch with NEAT

Configuring this feature requires that one switch outside a wiring closet is configured as a supplicant and
is connected to an authenticator switch.
For overview information, see the
Access Topology (NEAT)" section on page
The cisco-av-pairs must be configured as device-traffic-class=switch on the ACS, which sets the
Note
interface as a trunk after the supplicant is successfully authenticated.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure a switch as an authenticator:
