show aaa authentication mac
show aaa authentication mac [<profile-name>]
Description
This command shows information for MAC authentication profiles. Issue this command without the
<profile-name> option to display the entire MAC Authentication profile list, including profile status and the
number of references to each profile. Include a profile name to display detailed MAC authentication
configuration information for that profile.
Examples
The output of the example below shows two MAC authentication profiles, default and macProfile1, which are
referenced three times by other profiles. the Profile Status columns are blank, indicating that these profiles are
both user-defined. (If a profile is predefined, the value Predefined appears in the Profile Status column.)
The following example displays configuration details for the MAC authentication profile “MacProfile1,”
including the delimiter and case used in the authentication request, and the maximum number of times a client
can fail to authenticate before it is blacklisted.
