This section provides an overview of the current NAS port states for the selected switch.

While in the Guest VLAN, the switch monitors the link for EAPOL
frames, and if one such frame is received, the switch immediately
takes the port out of the Guest VLAN and starts authenticating the
supplicant according to the port mode. If an EAPOL frame is received,
the port will never be able to go back into the Guest VLAN if the "Allow
Guest VLAN if EAPOL Seen" is disabled.
The current state of the port. It can undertake one of the following
values:
•
Globally Disabled: NAS is globally disabled. Link Down: NAS is
globally enabled, but there is no link on the port.
•
Authorized: The port is in Force Authorized (Refer to Port
Configuration above) or a single-supplicant mode and the
supplicant is authorized.
•
Unauthorized: The port is in Force Unauthorized ((Refer to Port
Configuration above) or a single-supplicant mode and the
supplicant is not successfully authorized by the RADIUS server.
•
X Auth/Y Unauth: The port is in a multi-supplicant mode.
Currently X clients are authorized, and Y are unauthorized.
Two buttons are available for each row. The buttons are only enabled
when authentication is globally enabled and the port's Admin State
(Refer to beginning of Port Configuration above) is in an EAPOL-based
or MAC-based mode (Refer to f Port Configuration above).
Clicking these buttons will not cause settings changed on the page to
take effect.
•
Reauthenticate: Schedules a reauthentication whenever the
quiet-period of the port runs out (EAPOL-based authentication).
For MAC-based authentication, reauthentication will be
attempted immediately. The button only has effect for
successfully authenticated clients on the port and will not cause
the clients to get temporarily unauthorized.
•
Reinitialize: Forces a reinitialization of the clients on the port and
thereby a reauthentication immediately. The clients will transfer
to the unauthorized state while the reauthentication is in
progress.
