dot1x supplicant
This command defines the device for IEEE 802.1x authentication as a client (supplicant). Once configured (and run exit), configuration is loaded and negotiation with the 802.1x authenticator (e.g., secure LAN switch) begins. If the supplicant's credentials are valid, the authenticator authorizes traffic on the secure port connected to the device.
