[BUG] - IOU L2 17.12.1 (Image From CML 7.1) Doesn't Support 802.1x?

Hey all, has anyone been able to test 802.1x for the following version IOU L2 Image:
- (X86_64BI_LINUX_L2-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M), Version 17.12.1, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc5)

Seems you can setup dot1x on the IOU L2 image, but the below commands do not work when you try to do basic verification:
- show authentication sessions

- show access-session

- show dot1x interface

I re-ran the same configs I have on my IOU L2 image in my lab against the VIRL L2 image provided in CML 7.1 and the commands I outlined above (with the exception of "show access-session") works fine.

Hi @marce1000, 

Thanks for writing back, I've gone ahead and opened a bug report with (CiscoDevNet/cml-community):

- https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/cml-community/issues/46

I'll add that link you shared so we can get some traction, we can close this thread now that it's confirmed a few users have reported the issue.

This should help others who are trying to do dot1x labs using that image in the future.

Take care!
