aaa authentication dot1x
If you specify group radius, you must configure the RADIUS server by entering the radius-server host
global configuration command.
If you are not using a RADIUS server, you can use the local or local-case methods, which access the
local username database to perform authentication. By specifying the enable or line methods, you can
supply the clients with a password to provide access to the switch.
Use the show running-config privileged EXEC command to display the configured lists of
authentication methods.
Examples
The following example shows how to enable AAA and how to create an authentication list for 802.1x.
This authentication first tries to contact a RADIUS server. If this action returns an error, the user is
allowed access with no authentication:
Switch(config)# aaa new model
Switch(config)# aaa authentication dot1x default group radius none
You can verify your settings by entering the show running-config privileged EXEC command.
