dot1x

Displays dot1x information on interfaces. Dot1x (or 802.1x) is an IEEE standard for network authentication. Devices supporting dot1x allow the automatic provision and connection to the wireless network without launching a Web browser at login. When within range of a dot1x network, a device automatically connects and authenticates without needing to manually login.
However, dot1x-enabled devices can be configured either as:
  • supplicants only – Devices seeking network access
  • authenticators only – Devices authenticating the supplicants, or
  • supplicants as well authenticators
Note

Note

Dot.1x supplicant configuration is supported on the following platforms:
  • Access Points – AP 6522, AP 6562, AP 7161, AP 7502, AP-7522, AP 7532, AP 7562, AP-8163, AP-8432, AP-8533
  • Wireless Controllers – RFS 4000
  • Service Platforms – NX 5500, NX 75XX

Syntax

show dot1x {all|interface|on}
show dot1x {all {on <DEVICE-NAME>}|on <DEVICE-NAME>}
show dot1x {interface [<INTERFACE-NAME>|ge <1-4>|port-channel <1-2>} {on <DEVICE-NAME>}

Parameters

show dot1x {all {on <DEVICE-NAME>}|on <DEVICE-NAME>}
dot1x all {on <DEVICE-NAME>} Optional. Displays dot1x information for all interfaces
  • on <DEVICE-NAME> – Optional. Displays dot1x information for all interfaces on a specified device
    • <DEVICE-NAME> – Specify the name of the AP, wireless controller, or service platform.
dot1x {on <DEVICE-NAME>}

Optional. Displays dot1x information for interfaces on a specified device

  • <DEVICE-NAME> – Specify the name of AP, wireless controller, or service platform.
show dot1x {interface [<INTERFACE-NAME>|ge <1-4>|port-channel <1-2>]} {on <DEVICE-NAME>}
dot1x interface Optional. Displays dot1x information for a specified interface or interface type
<INTERFACE-NAME> Displays dot1x information for the layer 2 (Ethernet port) interface specified by the <INTERFACE-NAME> parameter
ge <1-4> Displays dot1x for a specified GigabitEthernet interface
  • <1-4> – Select the interface index from 1 - 4.
port-channel <1-2> Displays dot1x for a specified port channel interface
  • <1-2> – Select the interface index from 1 - 2.
on <DEVICE-NAME> The following keywords are common to all of the above parameters:
  • on <DEVICE-NAME> – Optional. Displays dot1x interface information on a specified device
    • <DEVICE-NAME> – Specify the name of AP, wireless controller, or service platform.
