16 IEEE 802.1X COMMANDS
The switch supports IEEE 802.1X (dot1x) port-based access control that
prevents unauthorized access to the network by requiring users to first
submit credentials for authentication. Client authentication is controlled
centrally by a RADIUS server using EAP (Extensible Authentication
Protocol). This section describes commands used to configure IEEE 802.1X
Port Authentication.
