# PAE Port Configuration

This dialog box provides information on the Port Access Entity (PAE) port associated with each port.

## Navigation

Right-click the port and then select Configure > PAE Port Configuration.

The following information is displayed:

> Protocol Version (dot1xPaePortProtocolVersion)

> Port Capabilities (dot1xPaePortCapabilities)

> Port Initialization (dot1xPaePortInitialize)

> Port Re authentication (dot1xPaePortReauthenticate)

> Multiple-Host Support (cpaeMultipleHost)

> Port Mode (cpaePortMode)

> Guest VLAN No. (cpaeGuestVlanNumber)

> Guest VLAN (cpaeInGuestVlan)

### Protocol Version (dot1xPaePortProtocolVersion)

Protocol version associated with this port.

### Port Capabilities (dot1xPaePortCapabilities)

Displays PAE functionality that this port supports and may be managed through this MIB.

### Port Initialization (dot1xPaePortInitialize)

Initialization control for this port. Setting this attribute to TRUE causes the port to be initialized. The attribute value reverts to FALSE once initialization has completed.

### Port Re authentication (dot1xPaePortReauthenticate)

Reauthentication control for this port. Setting this attribute to TRUE causes the Authenticator PAE state machine for the port to reauthenticate the Supplicant. Setting this attribute to FALSE has no effect. This attribute always returns FALSE when it is read.

### Multiple-Host Support (cpaeMultipleHost)

Specifies whether the port allows multiple-host connection or not.

### Port Mode (cpaePortMode)

Specifies the current mode of dot1x operation on the port. There are three possible values:

- singleHost(1): The port allows one host to connect and authenticate.
- multiHost(2): The port allows multiple hosts to connect. Once a host is authenticated, all remaining hosts are also authorized.
- multiAuth(3): The port allows multiple hosts, secured by the Port Security feature, to connect. The number of hosts that can be authorized is specified by the portSecurityTable's portSecurityMaxSrcAddr object.

### Guest VLAN No. (cpaeGuestVlanNumber)

Specifies the Guest VLAN of the interface. An interface in singleHost(1) mode is moved to its Guest VLAN if its access is unsucessfully authenticated. A value of zero indicates that no Guest VLAN is configured for the interface.

### Guest VLAN (cpaeInGuestVlan)

Indicates whether the interface is in its Guest VLAN.
