that MAC addresses can be spoofed by malicious users -
equipment whose MAC address is a valid RADIUS user can
be used by anyone. Also, only the MD5-Challenge method
is supported. The maximum number of clients that can be
attached to a port can be limited using the Port Security
Limit Control functionality.
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.
