Security Tab - 802.1x Users

The 802.1x Users screen allows you to enable port-based authentication and specify the authentication method you want to use.

Port Based Network Access Control. Enable or disable port-based network access on the Switch.

Authentication Method. Select the authentication method you want to use, RADIUS, None; RADIUS; or None.

For the RADIUS, None method, port authentication is performed first via RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial InFigure 5-33: Security - 802.1x Users User Service). If the RADIUS server cannot be reached, then no authentication method is used. However, if a

failure occurs, the port remains unauthorized and access is not granted. If you want the authentication to occur at the RADIUS server, select RADIUS. If you do not want to use an authentication method, then select None.
