Chapter 10      Configuring IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Authentication
Understanding IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Authentication
The port security violation modes determine the action for security violations. For more 
information, see the 
  •
When you manually remove an 802.1x client address from the port security table by using the no 
switchport port-security mac-address
 mac-address interface configuration command, you should 
re-authenticate the 802.1x client by using the dot1x re-authenticate interface interface-id 
privileged EXEC command.
  •
When an 802.1x client logs off, the port changes to an unauthenticated state, and all dynamic entries 
in the secure host table are cleared, including the entry for the client. Normal authentication then 
takes place.
  •
If the port is administratively shut down, the port becomes unauthenticated, and all dynamic entries 
are removed from the secure host table.
  •
Port security and a voice VLAN can be configured simultaneously on an 802.1x port that is in either 
single-host or multiple-hosts mode. Port security applies to both the voice VLAN identifier (VVID) 
and the port VLAN identifier (PVID). 
  •
You can configure the authentication violation or dot1x violation-mode interface configuration 
command so that a port shuts down, generates a syslog error, or discards packets from a new device 
when it connects to an 802.1x-enabled port or when the maximum number of allowed devices have 
been authenticated. For more information see the 
For more information about enabling port security on your switch, see the 
802.1x Authentication with Wake-on-LAN
The 802.1x authentication with the wake-on-LAN (WoL) feature allows dormant PCs to be powered 
when the switch receives a specific Ethernet frame, known as the magic packet. You can use this feature 
in environments where administrators need to connect to systems that have been powered down. 
When a host that uses WoL is attached through an 802.1x port and the host powers off, the 802.1x port 
becomes unauthorized. The port can only receive and send EAPOL packets, and WoL magic packets 
cannot reach the host. When the PC is powered off, it is not authorized, and the switch port is not opened.
When the switch uses 802.1x authentication with WoL, the switch forwards traffic to 
unauthorized 802.1x ports, including magic packets. While the port is unauthorized, the switch 
continues to block ingress traffic other than EAPOL packets. The host can receive packets but cannot 
send packets to other devices in the network.
Note
If PortFast is not enabled on the port, the port is forced to the bidirectional state.
When you configure a port as unidirectional by using the authentication control-direction in or dot1x 
control-direction in 
interface configuration command, the port changes to the spanning-tree forwarding 
state. The port can send packets to the host but cannot receive packets from the host.
When you configure a port as bidirectional by using the authentication control-direction both or dot1x 
control-direction both 
interface configuration command, the port is access-controlled in both 
directions. The port does not receive packets from or send packets to the host.
