not be logged on to the port.

Also note that the ports where the clients are connected on switch B are
set to the none role. This is because a client can log on only once. If, in this
example, you were to make a client’s port an authenticator, the client
would have to log on twice when trying to access switch A, once on its port
on switch B as well as the authenticator port on switch A. This is not
permitted. Consequently, in our example the clients on switch B have full
access to that switch, but are denied access to switch A until they log on to
port 6 on switch A.

One of the challenges to managing a network is accommodating end
users that roam. These are individuals whose work requires that they
access the network resources from different points at different times. The
difficulty arises in providing them with access to the same network
resources and, conversely, restricting them from unauthorized areas,
regardless of the workstation from where they access the network. A
closely related issue is where a workstation is employed at various times
by different individuals with unique requirements in terms of network
resources and security levels.
