A device connected to this port in this state is never subjected to the authentication process, but is allowed to communicate on the network. Placing the port in this state is same as disabling 802.1X on the port. • ForceUnauthorized an unauthorized state. A device connected to a port in this state is never subjected to the authentication process and is not allowed to communicate on the network. Placing the port in this state is the same as shutting down the port. Any attempt by the supplicant to initiate authentication is ignored. • Auto is an unauthorized state by default. A device connected to this port is this state is subjected to the authentication process. If the process is successful, the port is authorized and the connected device can communicate on the network. All ports are placed in the auto state by default. To place a port in one of these three states: Step 1 Task Place a port in the ForceAuthorized, ForceUnauthorized, or Auto state. Command Syntax dot1x port-control {force-authorized | force-unauthorized | auto} Default: auto Command Mode INTERFACE Figure 5-8 shows configuration information for a port that has been force-authorized. 802.1X | 81
