Syntax
dot1x port-control {auto | force-authorized | force-unauthorized}

auto — Enable 802.1X authentication on the interface and cause the port to transition to the
authorized or unauthorized state based on the 802.1X authentication exchange between the
switch and the client.
force-authorized — Disable 802.1X authentication on the interface and cause the port to
transition to the authorized state without any authentication exchange required. The port resends
and receives normal traffic without 802.1X-based authentication of the client.
force-unauthorized — Deny all access through this interface by forcing the port to transition to
the unauthorized state, ignoring all attempts by the client to authenticate. The switch cannot
provide authentication services to the client through the interface.
