Description

DOT1X

Numeric

0

Specifies whether the IEEE 802.1X Pass through operating mode is enabled on Avaya Vantage™.

Pass through is the forwarding of Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN (EAPOL) frames between the device’s Ethernet line interface and its secondary (PC) Ethernet interface.

The options are:

  • 0: EAPOL multicast pass-through is enabled without proxy logoff.

  • 1: EAPOL multicast pass-through is enabled with proxy logoff.

  • 2: EAPOL multicast pass-through is disabled.

For provisioning, use:

  • The SET command in the 46xxsettings.txt file.

  • The Settings > Network & Internet > Ethernet > IEEE 802.1x authentication > Pass through mode menu on the device.

Numeric

0

Specifies whether the IEEE 802.1X supplicant operating mode for Ethernet is enabled on Avaya Vantage™. The options are:

  • 0: Supplicant operation is disabled.

  • 1: Supplicant operation is enabled. Avaya Vantage™ responds only to received unicast Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN (EAPOL) messages.

  • 2: Supplicant operation is enabled. Avaya Vantage™ responds to received unicast and multicast EAPOL messages.

For provisioning, use:

  • The SET command in the 46xxsettings.txt file.

  • The Settings > Network & Internet > Ethernet > IEEE 802.1x authentication > Supplicant mode menu on the device.
