#1

When Web authentication (fixed VLAN mode), IEEE802.1X (fixed VLAN mode), and MAC authentication (fixed VLAN mode) are run at the same time, the total number of authenticated terminals for each is 1024 per device.

#2

When Web authentication (dynamic VLAN mode), MAC authentication (dynamic VLAN mode), and IEEE802.1X (dynamic VLAN mode) are run at the same time, the sum of the authenticated terminals for each operation is 1024 per switch.

#3

When a user ID registered in the internal Web authentication DB is used on more than one terminal, terminals up to the maximum number of terminal authentications can be authenticated. If the number of user IDs that will need to be authenticated is greater than the maximum number of entries in the Web authentication DB, authenticate users remotely using a RADIUS server rather than the internal Web authentication DB.
