Figure 4.171 – Security > 802.1X > 802.1X Port Settings
From Port / To Port: Select the range of ports to be configured.
Direction: Sets the administratively-controlled direction on the port. The possible field values are:
Both: Specify the control is exerted over both incoming and outgoing traffic through the controlled
port selected in the first field.
In: Disables the support in the present firmware release.
Port Control: This allows user to control the port authorization state.
Select ForceAuthorized to disable 802.1X and cause the port to transition to the authorized state
without any authentication exchange required. This means the port transmits and receives normal
traffic without 802.1X-based authentication of the client.
If ForceUnauthorized is selected, the port will remain in the unauthorized state, ignoring all
attempts by the client to authenticate. The Switch cannot provide authentication services to the client
through the interface.
If Auto is selected, it will enable 802.1X and cause the port to begin in the unauthorized state,
allowing only EAPOL frames to be sent and received through the port. The authentication process
begins when the link state, transitions from down to up, or when an EAPOL-start frame is received.
The Switch then requests the identity of the client and begins relaying authentication messages
between the client and the authentication server. The default setting is Auto.
Forward PDU: Select to enable or disable the forward PDU option here.
MaxReq(1-10): This parameter specifies the maximum number of times that the switch retransmits an EAP
request (md5-challenge) to the client before it times out the authentication session. Default is 2 times.
PAE Authenticator: Select to enable or disable the Port Access Entity (PAE) authenticator option here. This
option configures a specific port as an IEEE 802.1X PAE authenticator.
ServerTimeout(1-65535): Sets the amount of time the switch waits for a response from the client before
resending the response to the authentication server. The default is 30 seconds.
SuppTimeout(1-65535): This value determines timeout conditions in the exchanges between the
authenticator and the client. The default is 30 seconds.
TX Peiord(1-65535): This sets the TxPeriod of time for the authenticator PAE state machine. This value
determines the period of an EAP Request/Identity packet transmitted to the client. The default is 30 seconds.
