Configuring MAC authentication delay
About MAC authentication delay
When both 802.1X authentication and MAC authentication are enabled on a port, you can delay MAC authentication so that 802.1X authentication is preferentially triggered.
If no 802.1X authentication is triggered or 802.1X authentication fails within the delay period, the port continues to process MAC authentication.
Restrictions and guidelines
Do not set the port security mode to mac-else-userlogin-secure or mac-else-userlogin-secure-ext when you use MAC authentication delay. The delay does not take effect on a port in either of the two modes. For more information about port security modes, see "Configuring port security."
