Description
Port State
The current state of the port. It can undertake one of the following values:
Globally Disabled: NAS is globally disabled.
Link Down: NAS is globally enabled, but there is no link on the port.
Authorized: the port is in Force Authorized or a single-supplicant mode and the
supplicant is authorized.
Unauthorized: the port is in Force Unauthorized 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.
Currently X clients are authorized and Y are unauthorized.
Restart
Two buttons are available for each row. The buttons are only enabled when
authentication is globally enabled and the port’s Admin State is in an EAPOL-based
or MAC-based mode.
Clicking these buttons will not cause settings changed on the page to take effect.
Reauthenticate: schedules a reauthentication 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 on successfully authenticated clients on the port and
will not cause the clients to be temporarily unauthorized.
Reinitialize: forces a reinitialization of the clients on the port and hence a
reauthentication immediately. The clients will transfer to the unauthorized state
while the reauthentication is in progress.
