Operations-level port 802.1x options are used to temporarily set 802.1x parameters for a port.
Table 183 Operations-Level Port 802.1x Menu options
Command Description
reset
Re-initializes the 802.1x access-control parameters for the port. The following actions take
place, depending on the 802.1x port configuration:
• force unauth - the port is placed in unauthorized state, and traffic is blocked.
• auto - the port is placed in unauthorized state, then authentication is initiated.
• force auth - the port is placed in authorized state, and authentication is not
required.
reauth Re-authenticates the supplicant (client) attached to the port. This command only applies if
the port’s 802.1x mode is configured as
auto.
Operations-level VRRP options
Command: /oper/vrrp
[VRRP Operations Menu]
back - Set virtual router to backup
NOTE: This menu is available only on the GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch.
Operations-level VRRP options are described in the following table.
Table 184 Operations-Level VRRP Menu options
Command Description
back <1-255>
Forces the specified master virtual router on this switch into backup mode. This is generally
used for passing master control back to a preferred switch once the preferred switch has
been returned to service after a failure. When this command is executed, the current master
gives up control and initiates a new election by temporarily advertising its own priority
level as 0 (lowest). After the new election, the virtual router forced into backup mode by
this command will resume master control in the following cases:
• This switch owns the virtual router (the IP addresses of the virtual router and its IP
interface are the same)
• This switch’s virtual router has a higher priority and preemption is enabled.
• There are no other virtual routers available to take master control.
