    Hi all, 

     

    there is a note in the ArubaOS 6.3 User Guide under the "Understanding Bridge" section, which is saying "ArubaOS does not support Wired 802.1x authentication in bridge mode for RAP and CAP. 802.1x authentication is supported only in tunnel and split modes." but we can use 802.1x in my company with RAP is in bridge mode and users can authenticate with 802.1x without any problem. What exactly this note is mean? Thank you.

    that new limitation in 6.3 is only for wired users behind a RAP/CAP using 802.1X
