Hello everyone!
I'm setting up 802.1x authentication using docking stations and I'm encountering this problem.
The laptops connect with there usb c interface to the docking station and a virtual adapter with a serial number is created.
The 802.1x authentication configuration is done on this virtual adapter and works correctly, but when the laptop is connected to a new docking station a new virtual adapter is created with a new sequence number that does not have the 802.1x authentication settings.
The mach a ddress pass thru functionality has been activated, but this does not prevent the creation of a new virtual adapter every time a workstation is changed.
Has anyone encountered the same problem and found a work around?

Are the devices managed or unmanaged?

Managed devices should automatically apply the 802.1X configuration to any/all Ethernet interfaces.

Are these Windows hosts?  Are you pushing the 802.1x settings via GPO?
