Description
Select the port to configure.
Select the port authorization state. The control mode is set only if the link status of
the port is link up. The possible field values are:
Auto: The ports mode (Authorized, Unauthorized, etc.) is determined by 802.1X
exchanges with supplicants and the authentication server.
Force Authorized: Places the interface into an authorized state without being
authenticated. The interface sends and receives normal traffic without client port-
based authentication.
Force Unauthorized: Denies the selected interface system access by moving the
interface into unauthorized state. The switch cannot provide authentication
services to supplicants through this interface.
Select the users that will have access to the specified port. The possible values are
admin and guest.
Enter the wait interval period in seconds for the supplicant to receive the
authenticator's EAP Identity request message.
Enter the wait interval period in seconds for the supplicant to start the next
authentication process after a previous authentication process failure.
Enter the wait interval period for the supplicant to receive EAP challenge requests
form the authenticator.
