Error Message DOT1X-5-ERR_RADIUSVLAN_EQ_VVLAN: RADIUS attempted to assign a VLAN to
Dot1x port [char] whose Voice VLAN is same as Access Vlan
Explanation

Error Message DOT1X-5-ERR_RSPAN_VLAN:Dot1x can not be enabled on ports configured in
Remote SPAN vlan.
Explanation
802.1X cannot be enabled on the remote SPAN VLAN port. This condition is caused by

is in the remote SPAN VLAN, which is not allowed.

Error Message DOT1X-5-ERR_SPANDST: Dot1x can not be enabled on [char]. It is
configured as a SPAN Dest port.

destination ports are mutually exclusive features.
Recommended Action Disable the SPAN destination port configuration the reconfigure Dot1x on the
port.
Error Message DOT1X-5-ERR_TRUNK: Dot1x can not be enabled on Trunk port

Error Message DOT1X-5-ERR_TUNNEL:Dot1x can not be enabled on 802.1q tunnelling
enabled ports
