force-authorized—802.1x authentication is disabled and the port moves to the authorized
state.

force-unauthorized—802.1x authentication is disabled and the port moves to the unauthorized
state.

NOTE

If you globally disable 802.1x, all interface ports with 802.1x authentication enabled automatically
switch to force-authorized port-control mode.

To configure 802.1x port-control on a specific interface port, perform the following steps. Repeat
this task for each interface port you wish to modify.

1. Issue the RPC to configure the node in the

urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-interface namespace.

2. Under the node, specify the , ,

, or node element.

NOTE

You cannot configure 802.1x authentication on a port-channel.

3. Under the , , , or

node, include the leaf element and specify the name of
the interface on which you want to configure 802.1x authentication port-control. Specify the
interface in [rbridge-id/]slot/port format.

4. Under the , , , or

node, include the node element from the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-dot1x namespace.

5. Under the node, include the empty leaf element to enable 802.1x

authentication on the interface.

6. Under the node, include the leaf element and set its value to “auto”,

“force-authorized”, or “force-unauthorized”.

The following example sets port-control on 10 gigabit Ethernet interface 22/0/1 to
“force-authorized”.
