set dot1x

Use this command to enable or disable 802.1X authentication, to reauthenticate one or more access entities, or to reinitialize one or more supplicants.

Syntax

set dot1x {enable disable port {init reauth} {true false} [port-string]}

Parameters

enable disable	Enables or disables 802.1X.
port	Enable or disable 802.1X reauthentication or initialization control on one or
	more ports.
init reauth	Configure initialization or reauthentication control.
true false	Enable (true) or disable (false) reinitialization/reauthentication.
port‐string	(Optional) Specifies the port(s) to reinitialize or reauthenticate.

Defaults

If no ports are specified, the reinitialization or reauthentication setting will be applied to all ports.

Mode

Switch command, read‐write.

Usage

Disabling 802.1X authentication globally, by not entering a specific port‐string value, will enable the EAP pass‐through feature. EAP pass‐through allows client authentication packets to be forwarded unmodified through the switch to an upstream device.

Examples

This example shows how to enable 802.1X:

C3(su)->set dot1x enable

This example shows how to reinitialize ge.1.2:

C3(rw)->set dot1x port init true ge.1.2
