Web and MAC Authentication Configuring Web Authentication Syntax: Notes: aaa port-access controlled-directions - Continued - ■ For information on how to configure the prerequisites for using the aaa port-access controlled-directions in command, see Chapter 4, "Multiple Instance Spanning-Tree Operation" in the Advanced Traffic Management Guide. ■ To display the currently configured Controlled Directions value for web-authenticated ports, enter the show port-access web-based config command as shown in Figure 3-4. ■ The aaa port-access controlled-direction in command allows Wakeon-LAN traffic to be transmitted on a web-authenticated egress port that has not yet transitioned to the authenticated state; the controlled-direction both setting prevents Wake-on-LAN traffic to be transmitted on a web-authenticated egress port until authentica tion occurs. The Wake-on-LAN feature is used by network administrators to remotely power on a sleeping workstation (for example, during early morning hours to perform routine maintenance operations, such as patch management and software updates) ■ Using the aaa port-access controlled-directions in command, you can enable the transmission of Wake-on-LAN traffic on unauthenticated egress ports that are configured for any of the following port-based security features: • 802.1X authentication • MAC authentication • Web authentication Because a port can be configured for more than one type of authenti cation to protect the switch from unauthorized access, the last setting you configure with the aaa port-access controlled-directions command is applied to all authentication methods configured on the switch. For information about how to configure and use 802.1X authentica tion, refer to Chapter 12, "Configuring Port-Based and User-Based Access Control (802.1X)". ■ When a web-authenticated port is configured with the controlleddirections in setting, eavesdrop prevention is not supported on the port. 3-23
