This window allows you to set the following features: | ||||
|
| |||
Unit | Select the unit in the stack order to configure. | |||
|
| |||
From [ ] To [ ] | Select the port or ports to be set. | |||
|
|
| ||
|
| Sets the | ||
AdmDir | selected, control is only exerted over incoming traffic through the port | |||
you selected in the first field. If both is selected, control is exerted over | ||||
|
| both incoming and outgoing traffic through the controlled port selected | ||
|
| in the first field. | ||
|
|
| ||
|
| This allows you to control the port authorization state. Select | ||
|
| forceAuthorized to disable 802.1X and cause the port to transition to | ||
|
| the authorized state without any authentication exchange required. This | ||
|
| means the port transmits and receives normal traffic without 802.1X- | ||
|
| based authentication of the client. If forceUnauthorized is selected, the | ||
|
| port will remain in the unauthorized state, ignoring all attempts by the | ||
|
| client to authenticate. The switch cannot provide authentication | ||
PortControl | services to the client through the interface. The third option is auto. This | |||
enables 802.1X and causes the port to begin in the unauthorized state, | ||||
|
| |||
|
| allowing only EAPOL frames to be sent and received through the port. | ||
|
| The authentication process begins when the link state of the port | ||
|
| transitions from down to up, or when an | ||
|
| The switch then requests the identity of the client and begins relaying | ||
|
| authentication messages between the client and the authentication | ||
|
| server. Each client attempting to access the network is uniquely | ||
|
| identified by the switch by using the client’s MAC address. | ||
|
| |||
TxPeriod | This sets the period of time for the authenticator PAE state machine. | |||
|
|
| ||
QuietPeriod | This allows you to set the number of seconds that the switch remains in | |||
the quiet state following a failed authentication exchange with the client. | ||||
|
| |||
|
|
| ||
SuppTimeout | This sets the port’s suppTimeout for the Backend Authentication state | |||
machine. | ||||
|
| |||
|
|
| ||
ServerTimeout* | This sets the port’s serverTimeout for the Backend Authentication state | |||
machine. | ||||
|
| |||
|
| |||
MaxReq | Set this for the Backend Authentication state machine. | |||
|
| |||
ReAuthPeriod | Set this for the Reauthentication Timer state machine. | |||
|
|
| ||
ReAuth | Toggle the port’s | |||
Disabled. | ||||
|
