The Multiple Hosts page contains the following fields: • 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 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 shuts down the port. Ports remain shut down until they are activated, or the switch is reset. • Traps - Enables or disables sending traps to the host if a violation occurs. - Enable - Enables sending traps. - Disable - Disables sending traps. • Trap Frequency (1-1000000) - Defines the time period in seconds 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 - Indicates that the port control is Force Unauthorized, the port link is down or the port control is Auto, but a client has not been authenticated via the port. - Not in Auto Mode - Indicates that the port control is Forced Authorized, and clients have full port access. - Single-host Lock - Indicates that the port control is Auto and a single client has been authenticated via the port. - No Single Host - Indicates that Multiple Host is enabled. • 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.
