Aruba 5400 to a Aruba CX 6300

    We are migrating from Aruba Switch 5400 to a Aruba CX 6300. 

    The old 5400 has a config like this and an interface...

    interface   A7          

    name  Server room switch   

    untagged    vlan  1

    aaa   port-access authenticator     

    aaa   port-access authenticator auth-vid 10

    aaa   port-access authenticator unauth-vid 70

    aaa   port-access authenticator client-limit 8

    aaa   port-access mixed 

    exit        

    It's the lines I have highlighted in blue that I don't know how to translate to a CX switch, and I have looked all over the internet, the Aruba CX 6300 CLI Guide, and the Aruba 6300 Security Guide with no luck. Does anyone speaks both Aruba Switch OS and Aruba CX better than I can? By bi-lingual skills are not as good as I thought, which makes me sad. LOL.

    aaa   port-access authenticator                     ->>>>>>  aaa authentication port-access dot1x authenticator enable (global command and interface level)

    aaa   port-access authenticator auth-vid 10     ->>>>>>  this can use "port-access role <role-name>" for authenticated users.

    aaa   port-access authenticator unauth-vid 70  ->>>>>> aaa authentication port-access reject-role <role-name>   (in the port-access rolename configuration you can specify the VLAN)

    Here is the port-access config to go with the reject role. and the other one for a successful auth for staff.

    port-access role Reject-Role
        description LUR-for-reject-role

        reauth-period 120
        vlan access 999

    !

    port-access role Staff
        description LUR-for-Staff
        client-inactivity timeout 600
        reauth-period 3000
        trust-mode none
        auth-mode client-mode
        vlan access 11
