User Guidelines
This command enables the attachment of multiple clients to a single
802.1x-enabled port. In this mode, only one of the attached hosts must
be successfully authorized for all hosts to be granted network access. If
the port becomes unauthorized, all attached clients are denied access to
the network.
For unauthenticated VLANs, multiple hosts are always enabled.
Multiple-hosts must be enabled to enable port security on the port.
Example

802.1x-authorized port.
Console(config)# interface ethernet g16
Console(config-if)# dot1x multiple-hosts
