  Note: 
z  As for the dot1x max-user command, if you execute it in system view without 
specifying the interface-list argument, the command applies to all ports. You can 
also use this command in port view. In this case, this command applies to the 
current port only and the interface-list argument is not needed. 
z  As for the configuration of 802.1x timers, the default values are recommended. 
 
1.5  Advanced 802.1x Configuration

1.5.1  Prerequisites 
Configuration of basic 802.1x  
1.5.2  Configuring Proxy Checking 
This function needs the support of 802.1x client program and CAMS, as listed below. 
z  The 802.1x clients must be able to check whether multiple network cards, proxy 
servers, or IE proxy servers are used on the user devices. 
z  On CAMS, enable the function that forbids clients from using  multiple network 
cards, a proxy server, or an IE proxy. 
By default, the use of multiple network cards, proxy server, and IE proxy are allowed on 
802.1x client. If you specify CAMS to disable use of multiple network cards, proxy 
server, and IE proxy, CAMS sends messages to 802.1x client to request the latter to 
disable the use of multiple network cards, proxy server, and IE proxy when a user 
passes the authentication.
