Port Control Settings
Asanté’s implementation of 802.1X extends the standard by using MAC based logical port support. Two new port control modes, Auto Mode (Multiple Hosts) and First Come, First Serve (Single Host), are provided to assist administrators in
By default, 802.1X Awareness and SystemAuthControl are disabled and all switch ports are placed in “Force Authenticated” state. For the SystemAuthControl to be enabled, 802.1X awareness must also be enabled.
Legend | Name | Description |
802.1X | Enabled | The switch recognizes 802.1X packets and will not forward packets |
| with an 802.1X reserved MAC address. | |
Awareness |
|
|
| Disabled | The switch isn’t 802.1X aware and authorizes all packets. |
|
|
|
SystemAuth | Enabled | The 802.1X protocol will be enabled on each individual port according |
| to its own Port Control settings. | |
Control | Disabled | The switch works as if there is no 802.1X support, and all ports work |
|
| as if they are in ForceAuthenticated mode. |
|
|
|
M | Auto Mode (Multiple | The traffic to or from multiple hosts through this port is allowed or |
| Hosts) | blocked by 802.1X protocol operation. The hosts are differentiated by |
|
| their MAC addresses. All hosts are blocked or unblocked |
|
| independently. |
S | Auto Mode (Single | The traffic to or from multiple hosts through this port is allowed or |
| Host) | blocked by 802.1X protocol operation. The hosts are differentiated by |
|
| their MAC addresses. If any host is authenticated through this port, |
|
| then all hosts that attached to the same port are authenticated too. |
F | First Come, Fist | The traffic to or from multiple hosts through this port is allowed or |
| Serve | blocked by 802.1X protocol operation. The hosts are differentiated by |
|
| their MAC addresses. If any host is authenticated, then all other hosts |
|
| that attached to the same port are unauthenticated, (i.e. blocked). |
To set Port Control, type c in the 802.1X Configuration Menu. Type the letter of the corresponding setting and press Enter.
