Chapter 40 Configuring 802.1X Authentication
Configuring 802.1X Authentication on the Switch
Disabling 802.1X Authentication for the DHCP Relay Agent
To disable
the DCHP Relay Agent from sending
the
802.1X parameters for a particular VLAN to the DHCP
server
, perform this task in privileged mode:
This example shows how to configure the DHCP Relay Agent to stop sending the 802.1X authentication
parameters for VLANs 1–3 and 20 and verify the configuration:
Console> (enable)
clear security acl map dhcp_relay 1-3,20
Successfully cleared mapping between ACL dhcp_relay and VLAN 1.
Successfully cleared mapping between ACL dhcp_relay and VLAN 2.
Successfully cleared mapping between ACL dhcp_relay and VLAN 3.
Successfully cleared mapping between ACL dhcp_relay and VLAN 20.
Adding Hosts to an 802.1X Guest VLAN
Typically, the guest VLANs support minimal services and provide minimal network access. The hosts
can be added to the guest VLAN only when the
set port dot1x
mod/port
port-control
auto
command
option is used. If you change the
set port dot1x
mod/port
port-control
command option from
auto
to
force-authorized
or
force-unauthorized
, the host is removed from the guest VLAN and added back to
the port VLAN.
To add a port to an 802.1X guest VLAN, perform this task in privileged mode:
This example shows how to add port 3/1 to 802.1X guest VLAN 200:
Console> (enable)
set port dot1x 3/1 guest-vlan 200
Port 3/1 is Multiple-authentication enabled, guest-vlan can not be enabled
Console> (enable)
set port dot1x 3/1 multiple-authentication disable
Port 3/1 Multiple-authentication option disabled
Console> (enable)
set port dot1x 3/1 guest-vlan 200
Port 3/1 Guest Vlan is set to 200
Console> (enable)
show port dot1x guest-vlan
