Configuring the Authenticator
To configure the IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Network Access Control
protocol on Ethernet interfaces you must configure the authenticator statement at the [edit protocols dot1x] hierarchy level.
Use the authentication-profile-name access-profile-name statement to specify the authenticating RADIUS server, and
use the interface statement to specify and configure the
Gigabit Ethernet or Fast Ethernet interface on the router specifically
for IEEE 802.1x protocol use; both at the [edit protocols dot1x
authenticator] hierarchy level.
