allowed access on this VLAN. The switch will not transmit an EAPOL Success frame when entering the
Guest VLAN.
While in the Guest VLAN, the switch monitors the link for EAPOL frames, and if one such frame is
received, the switch immediately takes the port out of the Guest VLAN and starts authenticating the
supplicant according to the port mode. If an EAPOL frame is received, the port will never be able to go
back into the Guest VLAN if the "Allow Guest VLAN if EAPOL Seen" is disabled.
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 for successfully authenticated clients on the port and will not cause the clients
to get temporarily unauthorized.
Reinitialize:
Forces a reinitialization of the clients on the port and thereby a reauthentication immediately.
The clients will transfer to the unauthorized state while the reauthentication is in progress.
