Configuring 802.1X parameters for a port
Follow these steps to configure 802.1X parameters for a port:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter Ethernet interface view
Set the port access control mode
for the port
Set the port access control method
for the port
Set the maximum number of users
for the port
Enable online user handshake
Enable the online handshake
security function
Enable multicast trigger
Enable periodic re-authentication
Specify the mandatory
authentication domain for the port
Note that:
Enabling 802.1X on a port is mutually exclusive with adding the port to an aggregation group.
In EAP relay authentication mode, the device encapsulates the 802.1X user information in the EAP
attributes of RADIUS packets and sends the packets to the RADIUS server for authentication. In
this case, you can configure the user-name-format command but it does not take effect. For
information about the user-name-format command, refer to AAA Commands in the Security
Volume.
If the username of a client contains the version number or one or more blank spaces, you can
neither retrieve information nor disconnect the client by using the username. However, you can use
items such as IP address and connection index number to do so.
The online user handshake security function is implemented based on the online user handshake
function. To bring the security function into effect, keep the online user handshake function
enabled.
