authenticate the users, on the specified interface. When macbased is adopted, the
user access this interface must be authenticated independently, and if one successful
authentication user is to finish network service, the other accessed users can still use
network service. When portbased is adopted, if only the first access user by this
interface can be authenticated successfully, the other access users followed can be
considered authenticated successfully automatically, but if the first one finish the
network service, the other accessed users' network service will be rejected . .

specified. The parameter interface-list cannot be input when the command is executed
in Ethernet interface view and it has effect only on the current interface.
