3Com MSR 50, MSR 30 manual Mac-authentication domain, 2011

2011

defined without the to interface-typeinterface-numberportion comprises only one port.

Description Use the mac-authenticationcommand to enable MAC authentication globally or for one or more ports.

Use the undo mac-authenticationcommand to disable MAC authentication globally or for one or more ports.

By default, MAC authentication is neither enabled globally nor enabled on any port.

Note that:

■In system view, if you provide the interface-listargument, the command enables MAC authentication for the specified ports; otherwise, the command enables MAC authentication globally. In Ethernet interface view, the command enables MAC authentication for the port without requiring the interface-listargument.

■You can configure MAC authentication parameters globally or for specified ports either before or after enabling MAC authentication. If no MAC authentication parameters are configured before MAC authentication is enabled globally, the default values are used.

■You can enable MAC authentication for ports before enabling it globally. However, MAC authentication begins to function only after you also enable it globally.

Example # Enable MAC authentication globally.
