config 802.1x capability ports
Purpose Used to configure the 802.1x capability of a range of ports on the Switch.
Syntax config 802.1x capability ports [<portlist> | all] [authenticator | none]
Description The config 802.1x command has two capabilities that can be set for each port, authenticator and none.
Parameters <portlist> – Specifies a range of ports.The port list is specified by listing the lowest switch number and the
beginning port number on that switch, separated by a colon.Then the highest switch number, and the highest
port number of the range (also separated by a colon) are specified.The beginning and end of the port list range
are separated by a dash. For example, 1:3 specifies switch number 1, port 3. 2:4 specifies switch number 2, port
4. 1:3-2:4 specifies all of the ports between switch 1, port 3 and switch 2,port 4 – in numerical order.
all – Specifies all of the ports on the Switch.
authenticator – A user must pass the authentication process to gain access to the network.
none – The port is not controlled by the 802.1x functions.
Restrictions Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To configure 802.1x capability on ports 1-10 on switch 1:
AT-9724TS:4# config 802.1x capability ports 1:1 – 1:10
a u t h e n t i c a t o r
Command: config 802.1x capability ports 1:1 – 1:10

config 802.1x auth_parameter
Purpose Used to configure the 802.1x Authentication parameters on a range of ports.The default parameter will return
all ports in the specified range to their default 802.1x settings.
Syntax config 802.1x auth_parameter ports [<portlist> | all] [default | {direction [both | in] |
port_control [force_unauth | auto | force_auth] | quiet_period <sec 0-65535>| tx_period
<sec 1-65535> | supp_timeout <sec 1-65535> | server_timeout <sec 1-65535> | max_req
<value 1-10> | reauth_period <sec 1-65535> | enable_reauth [enable | disable]}]
Description The config 802.1x auth_parameter command is used to configure the 8021x Authentication parameters on a
range of ports.The default parameter will return all ports in the specified range to their default 802.1x settings.
Parameters <portlist> – Specifies a range of ports.The port list is specified by listing the lowest switch number and the
beginning port number on that switch, separated by a colon.Then the highest switch number, and the highest
port number of the range (also separated by a colon) are specified.The beginning and end of the port list range
are separated by a dash. For example, 1:3 specifies switch number 1, port 3. 2:4 specifies switch number 2, port
4. 1:3-2:4 specifies all of the ports between switch 1, port 3 and switch 2,port 4 – in numerical order.
all – Specifies all of the ports on the Switch.
default – Returns all of the ports in the specified range to their 802.1x default settings.
direction [both | in] – Determines whether a controlled port blocks communication in both the receiving and
transmitting directions, or just the receiving direction.
port_control – Configures the administrative control over the authentication process for the range of ports.
The user has the following authentication options:
force_auth – Forces the Authenticator for the port to become authorized.
Network access is allowed.
auto – Allows the port’s status to reflect the outcome of the authentication process.
force_unauth – Forces the Authenticator for the port to become unauthorized.
Network access will be blocked.
quiet_period <sec 0-65535> – Configures the time interval between authentication failure and the start of a new
authentication attempt.
tx_period <sec 1-65535> – Configures the time to wait for a response from a supplicant (user) to send EAP
Request/Identity packets.
supp_timeout <sec 1-65535> –Configures the time to wait for a response from a supplicant (user) for all EAP
packets, except for the Request/Identity packets.
server_timeout <sec 1-65535> – Configure the length of time to wait for a response from a RADIUS server.
