The no form of this command returns the value to the default.
Default force-auth
Parameters force-auth — Disables 802.1x authentication and causes the port to transition to the authorized state
without requiring any authentication exchange. The port transmits and receives normal traffic without
requiring 802.1x-based host authentication.
force-unauth — Causes the port to remain in the unauthorized state, ignoring all attempts by the hosts to
authenticate. The switch cannot provide authentication services to the host through the interface.
auto — Enables 802.1x authentication. The port starts in the unauthorized state, allowing only EAPOL
frames to be sent and received through the port. Both the 7210 SAS and the host can initiate an
authentication procedure. The port will remain in un-authorized state (no traffic except EAPOL frames
is allowed) until the first client is authenticated successfully. After this, traffic is allowed on the port for
all connected hosts.
