The device uses the configured priorities of the available RADIUS servers in
order to select the RADIUS server.
If a new supplicant replaces an old supplicant (even if the port state remains
authorized), the software sends a stop message for the old supplicant and a
start message for the new supplicant.
In multiple sessions mode (dot1x multiple-hosts authentication), the
software sends start/stop messages for each authenticated supplicant.
In multiple hosts mode (dot1x multiple-hosts), the software sends start/stop
messages only for the supplicant that has been authenticated.
The software does not send start/stop messages if the port is force-authorized.
The software does not send start/stop messages for hosts that are sending
traffic on the guest VLAN or on the unauthenticated VLANs.
The following table describes the supported Radius accounting Attributes
Values and when they are sent by the switch.
