In order to successfully make use of 802.1X in a
shared media LAN segment, it would be necessary
to create “logical” Ports, one for each attached
device that required access to the LAN. The Switch
would regard the single physical Port connecting it to
the shared media segment as consisting of a number
of distinct logical Ports, each logical Port being
independently controlled from the point of view of
EAPOL exchanges and authorization state. The
Switch learns each attached devices’ individual MAC
addresses, and effectively creates a logical Port that
the attached device can then use to communicate
with the LAN via the Switch.

The fields that can be configured are described below:
Parameter
Description
Authentication Mode
Choose the 802.1X authenticator mode,
Disabled
,
Port-based
, or
MAC-based
.
Authentication Protocol
Choose the authenticator protocol,
Local
or
RADIUS EAP
.
Forward EAPOL PDU
This is a global setting to control the forwarding of EAPOL PDU. When 802.1X
functionality is disabled globally or for a port, and if 802.1X forward PDU is enabled both
globally and for the port, a received EAPOL packet on the port will be flooded in the same
VLAN to those ports for which 802.1X forward PDU is enabled and 802.1X is disabled
(globally or just for the port). The default state is disabled.
Max User (1-1792)
Specifies the maximum number of users. The limit on the maximum users is
1792
users.
RADIUS Authorization
This option is used to enable or disable acceptation of authorized configuration. When the
authorization is enabled for 802.1X’s RADIUS, the authorized data assigned by the
RADIUS server will be accepted if the global authorization network is enabled.
