Set the 802.1X Operational Mode

Use the following procedure to set or change the operational mode.

1. When you select 802.1X from the Craft Local Procedure Screen, the following text displays:

where the setting is the text string associated with the current system value of DOTIX (802.1X Supplicant Mode), defined as:

• "Pass-thru mode" if DOT1X = 0
• "P-t w/Logoff" if DOT1X = 1
• "Supplicant mode" if DOT1X = 2
2. To change the setting, press the Right (or Left) navigation arrow to cycle through the settings.

Depending on the current value, the next sequential text string is selected and displayed as the New setting. For example, if the current value is Pass-thru mode, pressing the Choice Selector displays P-t w/Logoff. If the current setting is Supplicant mode, pressing the Choice Indicator changes the new setting to Pass-thru mode.

3. Press Save to store the new setting and redisplay the Craft Local Procedure screen.
