Points to remember:

• MAC-auth always occurs before dot1x authentication
• If MAC-auth fail-thru is disabled, client should pass both MAC-auth and dot1x.

NOTE: Dot1x is only attempted if MAC-auth passes.

• If MAC-auth fail-thru is enabled: client should pass either MAC-auth or dot1x.

NOTE: Dot1x is only used if MAC-auth fails; if MAC-auth succeeds clients get MAC-auth-only role.
