Configure Port Access Control Mode

There are two port access control modes: Port-based access control mode and user-based access control mode.

Port-based access control mode (Portbased): Only permit one user to pass the authentication in the port

User-based access control mode (Macbased): In the port permit multiple users to pass the authentication; the users in the port can access the network only after passing the authentication.

Port-based access control mode is divided to two types: multi-host mode and single-host mode.

Multi-host mode (Multi-hosts): After one user in the port passes the authentication, the other users in the port can access the network without authentication.

Single-host mode (Single-host): In the port, only permit one user to pass the authentication and access the network, and the other users cannot access the network and cannot pass the authentication.
