switch transmits an EAPOL Failure frame when the port links up.
MAC-Based:
Enables MAC-based authentication on the port. The switch doesn’t
transmit or accept EAPOL frames on the port. Flooded frames and broadcast traffic
will be transmitted on the port, whether or not clients are authenticated on the port,
whereas unicast traffic against an unsuccessfully authenticated client will be dropped.
Clients that are not (yet) successfully authenticated will not be allowed to transmit
frames of any kind.
Port State
The current state of the port. It can undertake one of the following values:
Disabled:
802.1X and MAC-based authentication is globally disabled.
Link Down:
802.1X or MAC-based authentication is enabled, but there is no link on
the port.
Authorized:
The port is authorized. This is the case when 802.1X Authentication is
enabled, the port has link, and the Admin State is “Auto” and the supplicant is
authenticated or the Admin State is “Authorized”.
Unauthorized:
The port is unauthorized. This is the case when 802.1X authentication
is enabled, the port has link, and the Admin State is “Auto”, but the supplicant is not
(yet) authenticated or the Admin State is “Unauthorized”.
X Auth/Y Unauth:
X clients are currently authorized and Y are unauthorized. This
state is shown when 802.1X and MAC-based authentication is globally enabled and
the Admin State is set to “MAC-Based”.
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 “
Auto
” or
“
MAC-Based
”.
Clicking these buttons will not cause settings changed on the page to take effect.
Reauthenticate:
Schedules a re-authentication to whenever the quiet-period of the
port runs out (port-based authentication). For MAC-based authentication,
re-authentication will be attempted immediately.
The button only has effect for successfully authenticated ports/clients and will not
cause the port/client to get temporarily unauthorized.
Reinitialize:
Forces a re-initialization of the port/clients and thereby a
re-authentication immediately. The port/clients will transfer to the unauthorized state
while the re-authentication is ongoing.
