Configuring Supplicant Port Authentication
Use the Supplicant Port Authentication page to configure port access control on
ports that are configured in the supplicant role. To enable a port as an supplicant,
see Modifying Port PAE Capabilities.
To configure supplicant port authentication:
STEP 1 Click Security > 802.1X > Supplicant Port Authentication in the navigation
window.
STEP 2 Select the port to configure and click Edit.
The Current Port Control field shows the current authorization mode for the port.
STEP 3 Configure the following:
• Administrative Port Control—Select the port authorization mode. The
possible values are:
- Force Unauthorized—Denies the selected interface system access by
moving the interface into unauthorized state.
- Auto—The switch detects the mode of the interface based on the
outcome of authentication exchanges between the supplicant, the
authenticator, and the authentication server.
- Force Authorized—The port is placed into an authorized state without
requiring authentication with the authentication server. The interface
sends and receives normal traffic without client port-based
authentication.
