Configuring Switch Ports as 802.1x Authenticators

aaa port-access authenticator < port-list > (Syntax Continued)

[ unauth-vid < vlan-id >]

Configures an exsiting static VLAN to be the Unauthorized-
Client VLAN. This enables you to provide a path for clients
without supplicant software to download the software and
begin an authentication session. Refer to “802.1x Open VLAN
Mode” on page 6-20
.

[ auth-vid < vid >

Configures an existing, static VLAN to be the Authorized-
Client VLAN. Refer to “802.1x Open VLAN Mode” on page 6-20.

[ initialize ]

On the specified ports, blocks inbound and outbound
traffic and restarts the 802.1x authentication process.
This happens only on ports configured with

control auto

and actively operating as 802.1x authenticators. Note:
If a specified port is configured with

control authorized

and

port-security, and the port has learned an autho­

rized address, the port will remove this address and
learn a new one from the first packet it receives.

[ reauthenticate ]

Forces reauthentication (unless the authenticator is
in 'HELD' state).

[ clear-statistics ]

Clears authenticator statistics counters.
