The prerequisites for enabling MAB-only authentication on a port are:

•Enable 802.1X authentication globally on the switch and on the port (the dot1x authentication command).

•Enable MAC authentication bypass on the port (the dot1x mac-auth-bypasscommand).

In MAB-only authentication mode, a port authenticates using the host MAC address even though 802.1xauthentication is enabled. If the MAB-only authentication fails, the host is placed in the guest VLAN (if configured).

To disable MAB-only authentication on a port, enter the no dot1x auth-typemab-onlycommand.
