the supplicant is failed to authenticate. The port it connected is in the
unauthorized state, the supplicant and the devices connected to this port
won’t be allowed to access the network.

When the supplicant issue an EAP-Logoff message to Authentication ser-
ver, the port you are using is set to be unauthorized.
The 802.1X “enabled” is the type of authentication supported in the switch.
In this mode, for the devices connected to this port, once a supplicant is
authorized, the devices connected to this port can access the network
resource through this port.
802.1x Port-based Network Access Control function supported by the switch
is little bit complex, for it just support basic Multihost mode, which can dis-
tinguish the device’s MAC address and its VID. The following table is the sum-
mary of the combination of the authentication status and the port status
versus the status of port mode, set in 802.1x Port mode, port control state, set
in 802.1x port setting. Here Entry Authorized means MAC entry is authorized.
