Usage
Information
1X authentication is enabled when an interface is connected to the switch. If the
host fails to respond within a designated amount of time, the authenticator places
the port in the guest VLAN.
If a device does not respond within 30 seconds, it is assumed that the device is not
802.1X capable. Therefore, a guest VLAN is allocated to the interface and
authentication, for the device, occurs at the next reauthentication interval (dot1x
reauthentication).
