Table 7-1: List of configuration commands
Command name	Description
aaa accounting dot1x default	Enables the collection of accounting information by the RADIUS server.
aaa authentication dot1x default	Configures the switch to use the RADIUS server for IEEE 802.1X user authentication.
dot1x ignore-eapol-start	Configures the switch not to transmit EAP-Request/Identity packets in response to an EAPOL-Start message received from a supplicant.
dot1x logging enable	Sends IEEE802.1X operation log messages to syslog servers or email addresses (using E-Mail).
dot1x loglevel	Specifies the message level to write to the operation log.
dot1x max-req	Specifies the maximum number of times that the switch sends an EAP-Request/Identity packet when there is no response from the supplicant.
dot1x max-supplicant	Specifies the maximum number of authenticated users permitted per authentication unit.
dot1x multiple-hosts dot1x multiple-authentication	Sets IEEE802.1X authentication submode.
dot1x port-control	Enables IEEE 802.1X authentication for the specified interfaces.
dot1x radius-server host	Specify IP of RADIUS servers for IEEE802.1X only.
dot1x reauthentication	Enables or disables periodic re-authentication of authenticated terminals.
dot1x supplicant-detection	Configures how terminal detection is performed when terminal authentication mode is specified as the authentication sub-mode.
dot1x system-auth-control	Enables IEEE 802.1X.
dot1x timeout keep-unauth	Sets the time to retain the communication shutdown status on an interface when an authentication request from multiple terminals is detected in single mode of the authentication submode.
dot1x timeout quiet-period	Configures how long the switch waits before allowing a supplicant that failed authentication (including re-authentication) to try again.
dot1x timeout reauth-period	Specifies the interval between re-authentication attempts for authenticated terminals.
dot1x timeout server-timeout	Specifies how long the switch waits for a response from the authentication server.
dot1x timeout supp-timeout	Configures how long the switch waits for a supplicant to respond to an EAP-Request/Identity packet.
dot1x timeout tx-period	Specifies the sending interval for EAP-Request/Identity packets.

The following lists the operation commands that check IEEE802.1X status.
