However, what if you needed to add another Cisco device to a client facing switch port? Not so great… How do you get the device to authenticate the same way as your PC does? Fortunately the IOS includes a supplicant for 802.1x that will allow us to authenticate just like a wired windows client! Let’s check out the config … Continue reading
IPv6 Access List Basics
Chances are that if you have worked with IPv4 on the IOS platform for any length of time you are familiar with the access list formats, both standard and extended.

The ACLs also have to be named with a string as numbered ACLs are not acceptable. The ACL name can contain numbers … Continue reading

First, jump onto Cisco.com and log in with your Cisco ID. Access the download section for a device you have support … Continue reading
