Buenas Dias..
   
  1. Reading the documentation on cco on Access Points and dot1x authentication, it says one of the clients authenticates and gets authorized and rest of the clients flow through.
   
  *********
  Something sounds broken here. If I one client connects and rest of the clients flow through, isn't this a bad design or option? Ie..why even do this?
   
   
  2. When a client logs off, port becomes unauthorized. Then it says the access points manages the authentication of its clients.
   
  ***
  So little lost here. In 1, we use a client that gets authorized and gets connected and open the path for rest. Where does the Access Point comes in this?
   
  If client 1 disconnects, AP now starts authenticating.
   
  Appreciate any feedback I can get. This is the doc i was reading

  thanks.
