0 - Authentication Mode
This parameter can take the following values on an authenticator port:
ˆ 802.1x: Specifies 802.1x username and password authentication.
With this authentication method the supplicant must provide, either
manually or automatically, a username and password. This
authentication method requires 802.1x client software on the
supplicant nodes.
ˆ MAC based: Specifies MAC address-based authentication. The
authenticator port extracts the source MAC address from the initial
frames received from a supplicant and automatically sends the
address as both the username and password of the supplicant to
the authentication server. Supplicant nodes must have 802.1x
client software for this authentication method.
