• Port - The port number for which Advanced Port Based Authentication is enabled. • Host Authentication - Defines the host authentication type. The possible fields are: - Single - Enables a single authorized host for single-session access to the system. - Multiple Host - Enables a single host to authorize multiple hosts for single-session access to the system. This setting must be enabled in order to either disable the ingress-filter, or to use port-lock security on the selected port. - Multiple Session - Enables a single authorzied host for multiple-session access to the system. This is the default value. • Action on Single Host Violation - Defines the action to be applied to packets arriving in single-host mode, from a host whose MAC address is not the client (supplicant) MAC address. The Action on Single Host Violation field can be defined only if the Multiple Hosts field is defined as Disable. The possible field values are: - Forward - Forwards the packets from an unknown source, however, the MAC address is not learned. - Discard - Discards the packets from any unlearned source. This is the default value. - Shutdown - Discards the packet from any unlearned source and locks the port. Ports remain locked until they are activated, or the device is reset. • Traps - Enables or disables sending traps to the host if a violation occurs. • Trap Frequency (1-1000000) (Sec) - Defines the time period by which traps are sent to the host. The Trap Frequency (1-1000000) field can be defined only if the Multiple Hosts field is defined as Disable. The default is 10 seconds. • Status - The host status. The possible field values are: - Unauthorized - Clients (supplicants) have full port access. - Authorized - Cents (supplicants) have limited port access. • Number of Violations - The number of packets that arrived on the interface in single-host mode, from a host whose MAC address is not the client (supplicant) MAC address.
