Configuring 802.1X port security

For the <method-list>, enter at least one of the following authentication methods

radius – Use the list of all RADIUS servers that support 802.1X for authentication.

none – Use no authentication. The Client is automatically authenticated without the device using
information supplied by the Client.

NOTE

If you specify both radius and none, make sure radius comes before none in the method list.

Setting RADIUS parameters

To use a RADIUS server to authenticate access to a device, you must identify the server to the
device.

Example

TurboIron(config)#radius-server host 10.157.22.99 auth-port 1812 acct-port 1813

default key mirabeau dot1x

Syntax: radius-server host <ip-addr> | <ipv6-addr> | <server-name> [auth-port <num> |

acct-port <num> | default] [key 0 | 1 <string>] [dot1x]

The host <ip-addr> | <ipv6-addr> | <server-name> parameter is either an IP address or an ASCII
text string.

The dot1x parameter indicates that this RADIUS server supports the 802.1X standard. A RADIUS
server that supports the 802.1X standard can also be used to authenticate non-802.1X
authentication requests.

NOTE

To implement 802.1X port security, at least one of the RADIUS servers identified to the device must
support the 802.1X standard.

Supported RADIUS attributes

Many IEEE 802.1X Authenticators will function as RADIUS clients. Some of the RADIUS attributes
may be received as part of IEEE 802.1X authentication. Devices support the following RADIUS
attributes for IEEE 802.1X authentication:

Username (1) – RFC 2865

NAS-IP-Address (4) – RFC 2865

NAS-Port (5) – RFC 2865

Service-Type (6) – RFC 2865

FilterId (11) – RFC 2865

Framed-MTU (12) – RFC 2865

State (24) – RFC 2865

Vendor-Specific (26) – RFC 2865

Session-Timeout (27) – RFC 2865

Termination-Action (29) – RFC 2865

Calling-Station-ID (31) – RFC 2865

NAS-Port-Type (61) š RFC 2865
