When you configure an 802.1X guest VLAN, follow these guidelines:
•
The following matrix shows the location restrictions for the interface configured with 802.1X
guest VLAN and the interface connected to the external network on an eIRF system:

You can configure only one 802.1X guest VLAN on a port. The 802.1X guest VLANs on different
ports can be different.
•
Assign different IDs to the voice VLAN, the port VLAN, and the 802.1X guest VLAN on a port.
The assignment makes sure the port can correctly process incoming VLAN-tagged traffic.
•
When you configure multiple security features on a port, follow the guidelines in
