Port Authentication Commands

The switch supports IEEE 802.1x (dot1x) port-based access control
that prevents unauthorized access to the network by requiring
users to first enter a user ID and password for authentication.
Client authentication is controlled centrally by a RADIUS server
using EAPOL (Extensible Authentication Protocol Over LAN).
