Sending 802.1X protocol packets out of a port without VLAN tags

This feature enables the device to send 802.1X protocol packets out of an 802.1X-enabled port without VLAN tags. It prevents terminal devices connected to the port from failing 802.1X authentication because they cannot identify VLAN tags.

This feature is supported only on Ethernet ports whose link type is hybrid or trunk.
