❑ Auto: Enables 802.1X port-based authentication and causes the
port to begin in the unauthorized state, allowing only EAPOL
frames to be sent and received through the port. The
authentication process begins when the link state of the port
changes. The switch requests the identity of the client and begins
relaying authentication messages between the client and the
authentication server. Each client that attempts to access the
network is uniquely identified by the switch by using the client's
MAC address. This is the default value.
