Linked Diagram TemplateLinked Diagram Template

When 802.1x port-based security is configured for a LAN port, the first host that attempts to connect to this port is "locked" to the port. In order to connect a different computer to the port, you must first reset 802.1x locking.

To reset 802.1x locking on all ports

  1. Click Network in the main menu, and click the Ports tab.

    The Ports page appears.

  2. Click Reset 802.1x.

    A confirmation message appears.

  3. Click OK.

    The 802.1x status of all ports is reset to "Unauthenticated".
