• Authentication Method—Select the authentication method for the port. The
options are:
- 802.1X Only—802.1X authentication is the only authentication method
performed on the port.
- MAC Only—Port is authenticated based on the supplicant MAC address.
Only 8 MAC-based authentications can be used on the port.
- 802.1X and MAC—Both 802.1X and MAC-based authentication are
performed on the device. The 802.1X authentication takes precedence.
NOTE For MAC authentication to succeed, the RADIUS server supplicant
username and password must be the supplicant MAC address. The MAC
address must be in lower case letters and entered without the “:” or “-”
separators; for example: 0020aa00bbcc.
• Periodic Reauthentication—Select to enable port re-authentication
attempts after the specified Reauthentication Period.
• Reauthentication Period—Enter the number of seconds after which the
selected port is reauthenticated.
• Reauthenticate Now—Select to enable immediate port re-authentication.
• Authenticator State—Displays the defined port authorization state. The
options are:
- Initialize—In process of coming up.
- Force-Authorized—Controlled port state is set to Force-Authorized
(forward traffic).
- Force-Unauthorized—Controlled port state is set to Force-Unauthorized
(discard traffic).
NOTE If the port is not in Force-Authorized or Force-Unauthorized, it is in
Auto Mode and the authenticator displays the state of the authentication
in progress. After the port is authenticated, the state is shown as
Authenticated.
• Time Range—Enable a limit on the time that the specific port is authorized
for use if 802.1x has been enabled (Port -Based authentication is checked).
• Time Range Name—Select the profile that specifies the time range.
• Quiet Period—Enter the number of seconds that the device remains in the
quiet state following a failed authentication exchange.
