Default: The default maximum user allowed is 1.
Usage Guide: This command is available for ports using MAC-based access management, if MAC
address authenticated exceeds the number of allowed user, additional users will not
be able to access the network.
Example: Setting port 1/3 to allow 5 users.
Switch(Config-Ethernet1/3)#dot1x max-user 5
20.2.2.10 dot1x port-control
Command: dot1x port-control {auto|force-authorized|force-unauthorized }
no dot1x port-control
Function: Sets the 802.1x authentication status; the "no dot1x port-control" command restores the
default setting.
Parameters: auto enable 802.1x authentication, the port authorization status is determined by the
authentication information between the switch and the supplicant; force-authorized
sets port to authorized status, unauthenticated data is allowed to pass through the port;
force-unauthorized will set the port to non-authorized mode, the switch will not
provide authentication for the supplicant and prohibit data from passing through the
port.
Command mode: Port configuration Mode
Default: When 802.1x is enabled for the port, force authorized is set by default.
Usage Guide: If the port needs to provide 802.1x authentication for the user, the port authentication
mode should be set to auto.
Example: Setting port1/1 to require 802.1x authentication mode.
Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 1/1
Switch(Config-Ethernet1/1)#dot1x port-control auto
20.2.2.11 dot1x port-method
Command: dot1x port-method {macbased | portbased}
no dot1x port-method
Function: Sets the access management method for the specified port; the "no dot1x port-method"
command restores the default access management method.
Parameters: macbased sets the MAC-based access management method; portbased sets
port-based access management.
Command mode: Port configuration Mode
Default: MAC-based access management is used by default.
Usage Guide: MAC-based access management is better than port-based access management in both
security and management, port-based access management is suggested only for
special usages.
Example: Setting port-based access management for port 1/4.
Switch(Config-Ethernet1/4)#dot1x port-method portbased
20.2.2.12 dot1x re-authenticate
Command: dot1x re-authenticate [interface <interface-name>]
Function: Enables real-time 802.1x re-authentication (no wait timeout requires) for all ports or a
