Figure 46: Multiple Hosts Page

The Multiple Hosts Page contains the following fields:

Port — Displays the port number for which advanced
port-based authentication is enabled.
Multiple Hosts — Indicates whether multiple hosts
are enabled. Multiple hosts must be enabled in order
to either disable the ingress-filter, or to use port-lock
security on the selected port. The possible field values
are:

Multiple — Multiple hosts are enabled.
Disable — Multiple hosts are disabled.

Action on Violation — Defines the action to be applied to packets arriving in single-host mode, from a host whose MAC
address is not the supplicant MAC address. The possible field values are:

Forward — Forwards the packet.
Discard — Discards the packets. This is the default value.
Shutdown — Discards the packets and shuts down the port. The port remains shut down until reactivated, or until the

device is reset.

Traps — Indicates if traps are enabled for Multiple Hosts. The possible field values are:

True — Indicates that traps are enabled for Multiple hosts.
False — Indicates that traps are disabled for Multiple hosts.

Trap Frequency — Defines the time period by which traps are sent to the host. The Trap Frequency (1-1000000) field
can be defined only if multiple hosts are disabled. The default is 10 seconds.
Status — Indicates the host status. If there is an asterisk (*), the port is either not linked or is down. The possible field
values are:

Unauthorized — Indicates that either the port control is Force Unauthorized and the port link is down, or the port

control is Auto but a client has not been authenticated via the port.

Not in Auto Mode — Indicates that the port control is Forced Authorized, and clients have full port access.
Single-host Lock — Indicates that the port control is Auto and a single client has been authenticated via the port.
No Single Host — Indicates that Multiple Host is enabled.

Number of Violations — Indicates the number of packets that arrived on the interface in single-host mode, from a host
whose MAC address is not the supplicant MAC address.
