25-32 Authentication Configuration
Usage
Enablingport(s)forMACauthenticationrequiresgloballyenablingMACauthenticationonthe
deviceasdescribedin“setmacauthentication”onpage 25‐29,andthenenablingitonaport‐by‐
portbasis.Bydefault,MACauthenticationisgloballydisabledanddisabledonallports.
