authentication. When either of the above two kinds of access control is applied, un-authenticated
host cannot access any resources in the network.
When user based access control is applied, un-authenticated users can only access limited
resources of the network. The user based access control falls into two kinds – the standard access
control and the advanced access control. The standard user based access control does not limit the
access to the limited resources when the host is not authenticated yet. While the user based
advanced access control can control the access to the limited resources before authentication is
done.
Webbased access management is used mostly in layer switch. The global configuration of WEB
authentication agent and HTTP redirection address is needed before setting the port to Webbased
access management. Webbased access management is conflicted with the command of ip dhcp
snooping binding user-control.
Notes: The 802.1x free resource must be configured first for standard control method based on
user.
Example:
To configure the standard control method based on port for Etherent1/4.
Switch(Config-If-Ethernet1/4)#dot1x port-method portbased
22.17 dot1x privateclient enable
Command:
dot1x privateclient enable
no dot1x privateclient enable
Function:
To configure the switch to force the authentication client to use private 802.1x authentication
protocol. The no prefix will disable the command and allow the authentication client to use the
standard 802.1x authentication protocol.
Command:
Global Mode.
Default:
Private 802.1x authentication packet format is disabled by default.
Usage Guide:
To implement integrated solution, the switch must be enabled to use private 802.1x protocol, or
many applications will not be able to function. If the switch forces the authentication client to use
private 802.1x protocol, the standard client will not be able to work.
