Usage
Information
The dot1x static-mab command enables static MAB (mac auth bypass) and configures the
associated profile on a dot1x interface. Static MAB bypasses the authentication server for the supplicant
MAC addresses configured in the associated profile.
Before you enable static MAB, you must do the following:
● Enable MAC authentication bypass on the port by configuring the dot1x mac-auth-bypass
command.
● Ensure that no configured profile exists at the time of configuring the static-mab command.
● Use this command in Interface Batch Mode to enable static MAB in a dual-homing setup.
Example
Dell(conf)#do show dot1x interface ten gigabit ethernet 0/41
