Hi, all.
My question is a simple one. Under the following configuration, will
station A be able to authenticate against switch A, which supports
802.1x through switch B, which does not?
[X]--------[X]----------O
switch A switch B station A
FWIW, switch A is a Cisco 2924XL-EM, switch B is a 3Com 3CNJ100 Work
Area Outlet with a 4-port switch, and station A is a yet-to-be-purchased
802.1x NIC (most likely a 3Com, but I'm open to suggestions if you have
them).
Bonus question: Would authentication work if there were two stations
connected simultaneously to switch B (as you would expect to see on a
switch)?
Thanks!
