HPE6-A45 Exam - Question 45


Refer to the exhibit.

Several interfaces on an AOS-Switch enforce 802.1X to a Radius server at 10.254.202.202. The interface 802.1X settings are shown in the exhibit, and 802.1X is also enabled globally. The security team have added a requirement for port security on the interfaces as well. Before administrators enable port security, which additional step must they complete to prevent issues?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

Port security involves limiting the number of MAC addresses or clients that can connect to a port. Since 802.1X is enforced on the interfaces, setting a client limit is essential to ensure that the allowed number of authenticated clients is not exceeded. This prevents unauthorized access and ensures compliance with security policies. Setting an 802.1X client limit on the interfaces aligns with the requirement for port security and does not interfere with 802.1X authentication.
