Important Points to Remember
Dell EMC Networking OS supports 802.1X with EAP-MD5, EAP-OTP, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, PEAPv0, PEAPv1, and MS-
CHAPv2 with PEAP.
All platforms support only RADIUS as the authentication server.
If the primary RADIUS server becomes unresponsive, the authenticator begins using a secondary RADIUS server, if
configured.
802.1X is not supported on port-channels or port-channel members.
The NAS-Port-Type attribute indicates the type of the physical port of the NAS which is authenticating the user. It is used in
Access-Request packets. The value of this attribute is set as Ethernet (15) for both EAP and MAB supplicants.
