authentication.

Example
This example shows how to enable simultaneous multiple authentications:
multi Allow the system to use multiple authentication modes
simultaneously (802.1x and MAC Authentication) on a
port. This is the default mode.
strict User must authenticate using 802.1x authentication before
normal traffic (anything other than authentication traffic)
can be forwarded.
NOTE: Multiauth multi mode requires that MAC and 802.1X authentication be enabled globally,
and configured appropriately on the desired ports according to their corresponding command sets
described in this chapter (Refer to Section 10.3.2, “Configuring 802.1X Authentication,” on page
10-14 and Section 10.3.3, “Configuring MAC Authentication,” on page 10-30.)
