Access: read-write

Description: Select the Authentication Method 0. pap: IEEE 802.1X authentication system uses extensible authentication protocol (EAP) to exchange information between the switch and the client. The transmission of EAP packets is terminated at the switch and the EAP packets are converted to the other protocol (such as RADIUS) packets for transmission. 1. eap: IEEE 802.1X authentication system uses extensible authentication protocol (EAP) to exchange information between the switch and the client. The EAP protocol packets with authentication data can be encapsulated in the advanced protocol (such as RADIUS) packets to be transmitted to the authentication server.

What is tp8021xAuthMode?

Selects how the switch exchanges 802.1X EAP authentication data with the RADIUS server: pap terminates EAP at the switch and converts it to RADIUS, while eap tunnels the EAP packets inside RADIUS all the way to the authentication server.
