NOTE:

If EAP relay mode is used, the user-name-format command configured in RADIUS scheme view does not
take effect. The access device sends the authentication data from the client to the server without any
modification.

Setting the port authorization state

The port authorization state determines whether the client is granted access to the network. You can

control the authorization state of a port by using the dot1x port-control command and the following

keywords:

authorized-force—Places the port in the authorized state, enabling users on the port to access the
network without authentication.

unauthorized-force—Places the port in the unauthorized state, denying any access requests from
users on the port.

auto—Places the port initially in unauthorized state to allow only EAPOL packets to pass. After a
user passes authentication, sets the port in the authorized state to allow access to the network. You

can use this option in most scenarios.
