Chapter 13 Configuring IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Authentication
How to Configure IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Authentication
Enabling Voice Aware 802.1x SecurityConfiguring 802.1x Violation Modes
You can configure an 802.1x port so that it shuts down, generates a syslog error, or discards packets from
a new device when:
A device connects to an 802.1x-enabled port
The maximum number of allowed about devices have been authenticated on the port
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2 errdisable detect cause
security-violation shutdown vlan
Shuts down any VLAN on which a security violation error occurs.
Note If the shutdown vlan keywords are not included, the entire port
enters the error-disabled state and shuts down.
Step 3 errdisable recovery cause
security-violation
(Optional) Enables automatic per-VLAN error recovery.
Step 4 clear errdisable interface interface-id
vlan [vlan-list]
(Optional) Reenables individual VLANs that have been error-disabled.
interface-id—Specifies the port on which to reenable individual
VLANs.
(Optional) vlan-list—Specifies a list of VLANs to be reenabled. If
vlan-list is not specified, all VLANs are reenabled.
Step 5 shutdown
no-shutdown
(Optional) Reenables an error-disabled VLAN, and clear all error-disable
indications.
Step 6 end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 7 show errdisable detect Verifies your entries.
Step 8 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Saves your entries in the configuration file.
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2 aaa new-model Enables AAA.
Step 3 aaa authentication dot1x {default}
method1
Creates an 802.1x authentication method list.
To create a default list to use when a named list is not specified in the
authentication command, use the default keyword followed by the
method that is to be used in default situations. The default method list is
automatically applied to all ports.
method1—Specifies the group radius keywords to use the list of all
RADIUS servers for authentication.
Note Though other keywords are visible in the command-line help
string, only the group radius keywords are supported.
Step 4 interface interface-id Specifies the port connected to the client that is to be enabled for 802.1x
authentication, and enter interface configuration mode.
