Discussion

Controlling LAN access via 802.1x authentication or MAC authentication can assist in preventing a malicious user from connecting an unauthorized PC to a switch port to inject or receive data from the network without detection.

Check Content

Verify all access switch ports connecting to LAN outlets are configured for 802.1x or MAC authentication as shown in these configuration examples.

802.1x example:

interface Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/4
port link-mode bridge
port access vlan 200
dot1x

MAC authentication example:

interface Ten-GigabitEthernet1/0/5
port link-mode bridge
port access vlan 200
mac-authentication

If all access switch ports connecting to LAN outlets are not configured for 802.1x or MAC authentication, this is a finding.

Fix Text

Configure 802.1 x authentications on all host-facing access switch ports. To authenticate those devices that do not support 802.1x, MAC Authentication Bypass must be configured.
