• Auto: Frames are forwarded according to the authentication
state of each port.
• Forced Authorized Mode: Meant to disable authentication on
a port. It is intended for ports that support ISLs and devices that
cannot authenticate, such as printers and file servers. If a
default policy is applied to the port via the policy profile MIB,
then frames are forwarded according to the configuration set by
that policy, otherwise frames are forwarded according to the
current configuration for that port. Authentication using 802.1X
is not possible on a port in this mode.
• Forced Unauthorized Mode: All frames received on the port
are discarded by a filter. Authentication using 802.1X is not
possible on a port in this mode.
