Ashu,
         If you want Dot1x to do its job, you would have to put the port in
"dot1x port-control Auto" mode. You have to use Radius to communicate with
the authentication server, IETF Radius has unique attributes that facilitate
Dot1x proper functioning. In an even the client fails the authentication
process, you can always configure a Auth-fail Vlan for the client to fall
into.

Switch(config-if)# dot1x auth-fail vlan 2
In this configuration the client would be put in vlan 2 if it fails the
authentication process.

HTH,
Tarun
