Table 26-3 show macauthentication Output Details

Output Field	What It Displays...
MAC authentication	Whether MAC authentication is globally enabled or disabled. Set using the set
	macauthentication command as described in “set macauthentication” on
	page 26-28.
MAC user password	User password associated with MAC authentication on the device. Set using the set
	macauthentication password command as described in “set macauthentication
	password” on page 26-28.
Port username	Number of significant bits in the MAC addresses to be used starting with the left-most
significant bits	bit of the vendor portion of the MAC address. The significant portion of the MAC
	address is sent as a user-name credential when the primary attempt to authenticate
	the full MAC address fails. Any other failure to authenticate the full address, (i.e.,
	authentication server timeout) causes the next attempt to start once again with a full
	MAC authentication. Default value of 48 can be changed with the set
	macauthentication significant-bits command.
Port	Port designation. For a detailed description of possible port-stringvalues, refer to
	“Port String Syntax Used in the CLI” on page 7-1.
Port State	Whether or not MAC authentication is enabled or disabled on this port.
