Chapter 1 Configuring IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Authentication
Displaying 802.1x Statistics and Status
To configure the port as an 802.1x port access entity (PAE) authenticator, which enables IEEE 802.1x
on the port but does not allow clients connected to the port to be authorized, use the dot1x pae
authenticator interface configuration command.
This example shows how to disable 802.1x authentication on the port:
Switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet2/0/1
Switch(config-if)# no dot1x pae authenticator
Resetting the 802.1x Authentication Configuration to the Default Values
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to reset the 802.1x authentication configuration
to the default values. This procedure is optional.
Displaying 802.1x Statistics and Status
To display 802.1x statistics for all ports, use the show dot1x all statistics privileged EXEC command.
To display 802.1x statistics for a specific port, use the show dot1x statistics interface interface-id
privileged EXEC command.
To display the 802.1x administrative and operational status for the switch, use the show dot1x all
[details | statistics | summary] privileged EXEC command. To display the 802.1x administrative and
operational status for a specific port, use the show dot1x interface interface-id privileged EXEC
command.
Beginning with Cisco IOS Release 12.2(55)SE, you can use the no dot1x logging verbose global
configuration command to filter verbose 802.1x authentication messages. See the “Authentication
Manager CLI Commands” section on page 1-9.
For detailed information about the fields in these displays, see the command reference for this release.
