Chapter 10 Configuring IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Authentication
Configuring 802.1x Authentication
Configuring 802.1x Authentication with WoL
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable 802.1x authentication with WoL. This
procedure is optional.
To disable 802.1x authentication with WoL, use the no authentication control-direction or no dot1x
control-direction interface configuration command.
These examples show how to enable 802.1x authentication with WoL and set the port as bidirectional:
Switch(config-if)# authentication control-direction both
or
Switch(config-if)# dot1x control-direction both
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface interface-id Specify the port to be configured, and enter interface configuration mode.
For the supported port types, see the “802.1x Authentication
Configuration Guidelines” section on page 10-38.
Step 3
authentication control-direction {both
| in}
or
dot1x control-direction {both | in}
Enable 802.1x authentication with WoL on the port, and use these
keywords to configure the port as bidirectional or unidirectional.
both—Sets the port as bidirectional. The port cannot receive packets
from or send packets to the host. By default, the port is bidirectional.
in—Sets the port as unidirectional. The port can send packets to the
host but cannot receive packets from the host.
Step 4
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 5
show authentication interface
interface-id
or
show dot1x interface interface-id
Verify your entries.
Step 6
copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
