Enabling and Disabling 802.1X Globally

The following command globally enables or disables 802.1X authentication on all wired authentication ports on an WSS switch:

set dot1x authcontrol {enable disable}

The default setting is enable, which permits 802.1X authentication to occur as determined by the set dot1X port-controlcommand for each wired authentication port. The disable setting forces all wired authentication ports to unconditionally authorize all 802.1X authentication attempts by users with an EAP success message.

To reenable 802.1X authentication on wired authentication ports, type the following command:

23x0# set dot1x authcontrol enable

success: dot1x authcontrol enabled.
