802.1x port security violation with authentication host-mode multi-domain

Majed Zouhairy
Level 1
Level 1

Peace, i want to use 802.1x for voice and data, but when ever i configure

authentication host-mode multi-domain

the port becomes error disabled with reason security, which is 802.1x

if i switch it to

authentication host-mode multi-host

then the port stays up but the ip phone bypasses the authentication.

here is the port configuration:
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/25
description test
switchport access vlan 21
switchport mode access
switchport voice vlan 20
authentication host-mode multi-domain
dot1x pae authenticator
spanning-tree portfast
spanning-tree bpduguard enable

 

ios version:

Cisco IOS Software, C2960X Software (C2960X-UNIVERSALK9-M), Version 15.0(2a)EX5, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3)

is it a bug or a misconfiguration?

What is connected behind this port. Multi-Domain will allow single MAC for data and single MAC for voice. If you have VMs running or softphone it will cause error

well i know that multi-domain is used for voip and so i configured it with a ip phone and a pc.

But what I said that you need to verify how many macs are beind the port per vlan. It will allow one mac per vlan

Well it seems you do not know that the ip phone appears in the data vlan also. so perhaps the problem is that there are 3 macs?

Ip phones shouldn't appear in voice vlan if it's configured in the switch port unless I am missing something 

Kust to confirm, are you using cisco ip phone

since cdp is enabled, you can conclude it is a cisco phone.

check this out:
skorini-48-2960X#sh mac address-table interface g1/0/25
          Mac Address Table
-------------------------------------------

Vlan    Mac Address       Type        Ports
----    -----------       --------    -----
  20    2c0b.e914.3872    DYNAMIC     Gi1/0/25
  21    2c0b.e914.3872    DYNAMIC     Gi1/0/25
  21    c46e.1f15.8009    DYNAMIC     Gi1/0/25
Total Mac Addresses for this criterion: 3

what is bewildering, is that, the phone gets authenticated on the data vlan:
Vlan    Mac Address       Type        Ports
----    -----------       --------    -----
  20    2c0b.e914.3872    DYNAMIC     Drop
  21    2c0b.e914.3872    STATIC      Gi1/0/25
  21    c46e.1f15.8009    DYNAMIC     Drop

before the prot gets error diabled.
