You need to disable proxy detection before disabling the online user handshake function.

Some 802.1X clients do not support exchanging handshake packets with the device. In this
case, you need to disable the online user handshake function on the device; otherwise the
device will tear down the connections with such online users for not receiving handshake
responses.
Enabling the Proxy Detection Function
With the proxy detection function enabled, the device can prevent users from logging in through
proxies, that is, authenticated 802.1X clients, so that no user can access network resources
through a proxy or bypass monitoring and accounting. If detecting that a user is logging in
through a proxy, the device will send a trap message to the network management system
or/and force the user to log off by sending an offline message.
The proxy detection function is based on the online user handshake function. Before enabling
the proxy detection function, make sure that the online user handshake function is enabled.
For the proxy detection function to take effect on a port, you must enable the function both
globally and on the port.
Follow these steps to configure the proxy detection function:
