Hi all,
I'm trying to configure wired 802.1x security on a Catalyst 4506 IOS 12.1.19(EW), using Microsoft IAS (Microsoft's RADIUS), and Windows 2000 SP4 clients.
I've followed the procedures in the 4506 Software configuration guide and they seem to be straight forward.
I then turn 802.1x Debugging on the switch to monitor the 802.1x traffic, but there is none. If I bring the configured interface down and then back up, I do get some status change, but it seems like the switch is not sending or receiving EAPOL frames.
I then execute the dot1x "initialize" and also tried the "re-authenticate" commands, but I get an error saying that FastEthernet 2/2 is not a valid dot1x interface. The line card model number is WS-X4148-RJ21. Is the card not 802.1x compatible?
The switch does not throw any errors when I configure FastEthernet 2/2 as a 802.1x port by executing
dot1x port-control auto
i've also configured the interface to be a plain L2 access port by executing
switchport mode access
any help will be appreciated!
