Authentication Commands 4

Command Usage

•The “max-count” parameter specified by this command is only effective if the dot1x mode is set to “auto” by the dot1x port-control command (page 4-105).

•In “multi-host” mode, only one host connected to a port needs to pass authentication for all other hosts to be granted network access. Similarly, a port can become unauthorized for all hosts if one attached host fails re-authentication or sends an EAPOL logoff message.

Example

Console(config)#interface eth 1/2 Console(config-if)#dot1x operation-mode multi-host max-count 10 Console(config-if)#
