Occurs when there is an attempt to change the supplicant
configuration on a port that is not currently enabled as a
supplicant. Enable the port as a supplicant and then make
the desired supplicant configuration changes. Refer to
"Enabling a Switch Port as a Supplicant" on page 13-52.
This message can appear if you configured the switch for
EAP-RADIUS or CHAP-RADIUS authentication, but the
switch does not receive a response from a RADIUS server.
Ensure that the switch is configured to access at least one
RADIUS server. (Use show radius.) If you also see the
message Can't reach RADIUS server <
x.x.x.x >, try the suggestions listed for that message
(page 6-84).
To maintain security, LACP is not allowed on ports
configured for 802.1X authenticator operation. If you
configure port security on a port on which LACP (active or
passive) is configured, the switch removes the LACP
configuration, displays a notice that LACP is disabled on the
port(s), and enables 802.1X on that port.
Also, the switch will not allow you to configure LACP on a
port on which port access (802.1X) is enabled.
