Change the Authentication Status of a Port
The switch authorizes ports by default, which means that the ports are always authorized and are not authenticated by the RADIUS server.
You can also make the ports controlled so that they are dependent on being authorized by the Radius Server when you globally enable EAP (auto).
Procedure
