•
Auto

Places the specified or all ports initially in the unauthorized state to
allow only EAPOL packets to pass, and after a user passes authentication, sets
the port in the authorized state to allow access to the network. You can use this
option in most scenarios.

enabling users on the ports to access the network without authentication.

Enable Handshake
Select the box to enable the online user handshake function.
The online user handshake function checks the connectivity status of online
802.1X users. The network access device sends handshake messages to online
users at the interval specified by the Handshake Period option. If no response is
received from an online user after the maximum number of handshake attempts
(set by the Retry Times option) has been made, the network access device sets the
user in the offline state. For information about the timers, see Table 104 .
