Hi Group

I went through the doc for guest vlan and has created some confusion
in my mind . I dont have setup for dot1x capable devices to actually
go and test whats happening .. Appreciate if someone can help me

1) I am using 12.2(25)SE and later . and I have "dot1x guest-vlan
supplicant" enabled so that IOS maintains history.
2) If I give following :

switchport access vlan 4
dot1x port-control auto
dot1x guest-vlan 2

As far as I know ; if non Dot1x capable devices connect to switchport
they will be placed in guest vlan 2 ( am i right ?)

What will happen if Dot1X capable device connects to port and fails
authentication ? what Vlan will this be put in ( please note that i
have not used the cli "dot1x auth-fail" )

Bascially I want to know the behaviour in cases where authebtication
fails Vs where authentication is not possible ?
Can we move authentication failed clients to guest vlan ?

Thnx in advance
