Control-Direction (Wake-on-LAN)
DETAILED STEPS
Control-Direction (Wake-on-LAN)
When the router uses IEEE 802.1X authentication with Wake-on-LAN (WoL), the router forwards traffic
to the unauthorized IEEE 802.1X ports, including the magic packets. While the port is unauthorized, the
switch continues to block ingress traffic other than EAPol packets. The host can receive packets, but
cannot send packets to other devices in the network.
