■ Authenticated MAC addresses are stored as dynamic entries in the switch's secure
MAC address table. Configured static MAC addresses are added to the secure address
table when seen on a switch port. Static addresses are treated as authenticated without
sending a request to a RADIUS server.
■ When port status changes to down, all MAC addresses are cleared from the secure
MAC address table. Static VLAN assignments are not restored.
◆ RADIUS-Assigned QoS Enabled – Enables or disables this feature for a given port.
Refer to the description of this feature under the System Configuration section.
◆ RADIUS-Assigned VLAN Enabled – Enables or disables this feature for a given port.
Refer to the description of this feature under the System Configuration section.
◆ Guest VLAN Enabled – Enables or disables this feature for a given port. Refer to the
description of this feature under the System Configure section.
◆ Port State – The current state of the port:
■ Globally Disabled – 802.1X and MAC-based authentication are globally disabled. (This is
the default state.)
■ Link Down – 802.1X or MAC-based authentication is enabled, but there is no link on the
port.
■ Authorized – The port is in Force Authorized mode, or a single- supplicant mode and the
supplicant is authorized.
■ Unauthorized – The port is in Force Unauthorized mode, or a single-supplicant mode and
the supplicant is not successfully authorized by the RADIUS server.
■ X Auth/Y Unauth – The port is in a multi-supplicant mode. X clients are currently
authorized and Y are unauthorized.
◆ Restart – Restarts client authentication using one of the methods described below. Note
that the restart buttons are only enabled when the switch’s authentication mode is globally
enabled (under System Configuration) and the port's Admin State is an EAPOL-based or
MAC-Based mode. Clicking these buttons will not cause settings changed on the page to
take effect.
■ Reauthenticate – Schedules reauthentication to whenever the quiet-period of the port
runs out (EAPOL-based authentication). For MAC-based authentication, reauthentication
will be attempted immediately. The button only has effect for successfully authenticated
clients on the port and will not cause the clients to get temporarily unauthorized.
■ Reinitialize – Forces a reinitialization of the clients on the port and thereby a
reauthentication immediately. The clients will transfer to the unauthorized state while the
reauthentication is in progress.
