This item sets whether one or more clients may login at this interface via IEEE 802.1X.
- SNMP ID:
- 2.4.10.3.3
- Console path:
- Setup > LAN > IEEE802.1X > Authenticator-Ifc-Setup
- Possible values:
- Single host
- Just one client can authenticate and then operate on this port. If a further client with its own MAC address is detected on this port, the port is reset to the unauthenticated state.
- Multiple host
- Several clients (with different MAC addresses) can operate on this port. Authentication only needs to be performed once. This mode can be used, for example, if a WLAN access point is operated on a port configured in this way and the payload data is not tunneled to a central controller. In this case, data packets from WLAN clients that have their own MAC addresses would also be seen on the Ethernet port configured in this way.
- Multiple auth
- Several clients can each perform their own 802.1X authentication on this port.
- Default:
- Single host
