IEEE 802.1x Authentication
These are the IEEE 802.1x authentication configuration guidelines:
•
When IEEE 802.1x authentication is enabled, ports are authenticated before any other Layer 2 or
Layer 3 features are enabled.
Layer 3 features are enabled.
•
If you try to change the mode of an IEEE 802.1x-enabled port (for example, from access to trunk),
an error message appears, and the port mode is not changed.
an error message appears, and the port mode is not changed.
•
If the VLAN to which an IEEE 802.1x-enabled port is assigned changes, this change is transparent
and does not affect the switch. For example, this change occurs if a port is assigned to a RADIUS
server-assigned VLAN and is then assigned to a different VLAN after re-authentication.
and does not affect the switch. For example, this change occurs if a port is assigned to a RADIUS
server-assigned VLAN and is then assigned to a different VLAN after re-authentication.
If the VLAN to which an IEEE 802.1x port is assigned to shut down, disabled, or removed, the port
becomes unauthorized. For example, the port is unauthorized after the access VLAN to which a port
is assigned shuts down or is removed.
becomes unauthorized. For example, the port is unauthorized after the access VLAN to which a port
is assigned shuts down or is removed.

The IEEE 802.1x protocol is supported on Layer 2 static-access ports, voice VLAN ports, and
Layer 3 routed ports, but it is not supported on these port types:
Layer 3 routed ports, but it is not supported on these port types:
–
Trunk port—If you try to enable IEEE 802.1x authentication on a trunk port, an error message
appears, and IEEE 802.1x authentication is not enabled. If you try to change the mode of an
IEEE 802.1x-enabled port to trunk, an error message appears, and the port mode is not changed.

IEEE 802.1x-enabled port to trunk, an error message appears, and the port mode is not changed.
–
Dynamic ports—A port in dynamic mode can negotiate with its neighbor to become a trunk
port. If you try to enable IEEE 802.1x authentication on a dynamic port, an error message
appears, and IEEE 802.1x authentication is not enabled. If you try to change the mode of an
IEEE 802.1x-enabled port to dynamic, an error message appears, and the port mode is not
changed.

IEEE 802.1x-enabled port to dynamic, an error message appears, and the port mode is not

Authenticator (switch) mode
None specified.
MAC authentication bypass
