9-4
A port in this mode can learn MAC addresses, and allows frames from learned or configured MAC
addresses to pass. The automatically learned MAC addresses are secure MAC addresses. You can
also configure secure MAC addresses by using the port-security mac-address security command.
A secure MAC address never ages out by default.
In addition, you can configure MAC addresses manually by using the mac-address dynamic and
mac-address static commands for a port in autoLearn mode.
When the number of secure MAC addresses reaches the upper limit, the port transitions to secure
mode.
On a port operating in autoLearn mode, the dynamic MAC address learning function in MAC address
management is disabled.
2) secure
MAC address learning is disabled on a port in secure mode, but you can configure MAC addresses by
using the mac-address static and mac-address dynamic commands.
A port in secure mode allows only frames sourced from secure MAC addresses and MAC addresses
manually configured by using the mac-address dynamic and mac-address static commands to
pass.
Perform 802.1X authentication
1) userLogin
A port in this mode performs 802.1X authentication and implements port-based access control. The
port can service multiple 802.1X users. If one 802.1X user passes authentication, all the other 802.1X
users of the port can access the network without authentication.
2) userLoginSecure
A port in this mode performs 802.1X authentication and implements MAC-based access control. The
port services only one user passing 802.1X authentication.
3) userLoginSecureExt
This mode is similar to the userLoginSecure mode except that this mode supports multiple online
802.1X users.
4) userLoginWithOUI
This mode is similar to the userLoginSecure mode. The difference is that a
port in this mode also permits
frames from one user
whose MAC address contains a specified OUI (organizationally unique identifier).
For wired users, the port performs 802.1X authentication upon receiving 802.1X frames, and performs
OUI check upon receiving non-802.1X frames.
Perform MAC authentication
macAddressWithRadius: A port in this mode performs MAC authentication and services multiple
users.
Perform a combination of MAC authentication and 802.1X authentication
1) macAddressOrUserLoginSecure
This mode is the combination of the macAddressWithRadius and userLoginSecure modes.
For wired users, the port performs MAC authentication upon receiving non-802.1X frames and
performs 802.1X authentication upon receiving 802.1X frames.
