Thanks Ryan,
Yes, i did have config the IP add on my sw, as i described in the previous
post, i have a successful connectivity & authentication between the sw &
radius server. I've tested the radius server with login method and it worked
fine, but it was not ok with dot1x.
I see this in debug but i don't actually understand what does it mean ?

your switch should have management IP such that it is ip reachability
between your switch and Radius Server. It is because switch will send
dot1x request, on behalf of your dot1x client connecting to your
switch, to Radius server for authentication.
