This value must be between 1 and 1000. By default, this option is 1000. Select to enable or disable the deny MAC-move feature here. This option controls whether to allow authenticated hosts to do roaming across different Switch ports and only controls whether a host, which is authenticated at a port set to the multiauthenticate mode, is allowed to move to another port. If a station is allowed to move, there are two situations. It may either need to be re-authenticated or directly moved to the new port without re-authentication based on the following rule. If the new port has the same authentication configuration as the original port, then re-authentication is not needed. The host will inherit the same authorization attributes with new port. The authenticated host can do roaming from port 1 to port 2, and inherit the authorization attributes without reauthentication. If the new port has the different authentication configuration as the original port, then re-authentication is needed. The authenticated host on port 1 can move and re-authenticated by port 2. If the new port has no authentication method enabled, then the station is directly moved to the new port. The session with the original port is removed. The authenticated host on port 1 can be moved to port 2. If this feature is disabled and an authenticated host moves to another port, then this is treated as a violation error.

are described below:
Parameter
Description
Max Users
Enter the maximum amount of users allowed here. This value must be between 1
and 1000. By default, this option is 1000.
Deny MAC-Move
Select to enable or disable the deny MAC-move feature here. This option controls
whether to allow authenticated hosts to do roaming across different Switch ports
and only controls whether a host, which is authenticated at a port set to the multi-
authenticate mode, is allowed to move to another port.
If a station is allowed to move, there are two situations. It may either need to be
re-authenticated or directly moved to the new port without re-authentication based
on the following rule. If the new port has the same authentication configuration as
the original port, then re-authentication is not needed. The host will inherit the
same authorization attributes with new port. The authenticated host can do
roaming from port 1 to port 2, and inherit the authorization attributes without re-
authentication. If the new port has the different authentication configuration as the
original port, then re-authentication is needed. The authenticated host on port 1
can move and re-authenticated by port 2. If the new port has no authentication
method enabled, then the station is directly moved to the new port. The session
with the original port is removed. The authenticated host on port 1 can be moved
to port 2.
If this feature is disabled and an authenticated host moves to another port, then
this is treated as a violation error.
Authorization State
Select to enable or disable the authorized state here. The option is used to enable
or disable the acceptance of an authorized configuration. When authorization is
