Description
Select the port to be enabled with 802.1X authentication. Only 802.1X-disabled
ports are available.
IMPORTANT:
If the PVID of a port is the same as a voice VLAN, the 802.1X function cannot
take effect on the port.
802.1X is mutually exclusive with link aggregation configuration on a port.
Select the access control method for the port, which can be MAC Based or Port
Based.
Select the port authorization state for 802.1X.
Options include:
Auto—Places the port initially in the unauthorized state to allow only EAPOL
packets to pass, and after a user passes authentication, sets the port in the
authorized state to allow access to the network. You can use this option in
most scenarios.
Force-Authorized—Places the port in the authorized state, enabling users on
the port to access the network without authentication.
Force-Unauthorized—Places the port in the unauthorized state, denying any
access requests from users on the port.
Set the maximum number of concurrent 802.1X users on the port.
