Monitoring Wired Clients
You can also monitor currently connected wired clients using the Monitor > 802.1X
Wired Clients page. Note that connected devices will only be displayed when
802.1X is enabled on the Ethernet port to which they are connected. The Clients
table lists the wired client’s MAC address, user name or IP address, the AP it is
connected to, the port number, VLAN and authorization status. Click the delete
button to remove the entry of the wired client. The Events / Activities table displays
recent connection and authentication events related to wired clients only.
