Setting the port authorization state

The port authorization state determines whether the client is granted access to the network or not. You
can control the authorization state of a port by using the dot1x port-control command and the following
keywords:
authorized-force—Places the port in the authorized state, enabling users on the port to access the
network without authentication.
unauthorized-force—Places the port in the unauthorized state, denying any access requests from
users on the port.
auto—Places the port initially in unauthorized state to allow only EAPOL packets to pass. After a
user passes authentication, sets the port in the authorized state to allow access to the network. You
can use this option in most scenarios.
