Understanding IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Authentication

auto—enables 802.1x authentication and causes 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 of the port changes from down to up or when an EAPOL-start frame is received.
The switch requests the identity of the client and begins relaying authentication messages between
the client and the authentication server. Each client attempting to access the network is uniquely
identified by the switch by using the client MAC address.

The switch requests the identity of the client and begins relaying authentication messages between

identified by the switch by using the client MAC address.
If the client is successfully authenticated (receives an Accept frame from the authentication server), the
port state changes to authorized, and all frames from the authenticated client are allowed through the
port. If the authentication fails, the port remains in the unauthorized state, but authentication can be
retried. If the authentication server cannot be reached, the switch can resend the request. If no response
is received from the server after the specified number of attempts, authentication fails, and network
access is not granted.

802.1x Host Mode
You can configure an 802.1x port for single-host or for multiple-hosts mode. In single-host mode (see
), only one client can be connected to the 802.1x-enabled switch port. The
switch detects the client by sending an EAPOL frame when the port link state changes to the up state. If
a client leaves or is replaced with another client, the switch changes the port link state to down, and the
port returns to the unauthorized state.

In multiple-hosts mode, you can attach multiple hosts to a single 802.1x-enabled port.
shows 802.1x port-based authentication in a wireless LAN. In this mode, only one of the
attached clients must be authorized for all clients to be granted network access. If the port becomes
unauthorized (re-authentication fails or an EAPOL-logoff message is received), the switch denies
network access to all of the attached clients. In this topology, the wireless access point is responsible for
authenticating the clients attached to it, and it also acts as a client to the switch.

With the multiple-hosts mode enabled, you can use 802.1x authentication to authenticate the port and
