Use the no form of this command to return to the default setting.dot1x control-direction {both | in}no dot1x control-directionSyntax DescriptionbothinEnable bidirectional control on port. The port cannot receivepackets from or send packets to the host.Enable unidirectional control on port. The port can send packets tothe host but cannot receive packets from the host.DefaultsThe port is in bidirectional mode.Command ModesInterface configurationCommand HistoryRelease12.2(35)SE2ModificationThis command was introduced.Usage GuidelinesUse the both keyword or the no form of this command to return to the default setting, bidirectionalmode.For more information about WoL, see the “Using IEEE 802.1x Authentication with Wake-on-LAN”section in the “Configuring IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Authentication” chapter in the softwareconfiguration guide.ExamplesThis example shows how to enable unidirectional control:Switch(config-if)# dot1x control-direction inThis example shows how to enable bidirectional control:Switch(config-if)# dot1x control-direction bothYou can verify your settings by entering the show dot1x all privileged EXEC command.The show dot1x all privileged EXEC command output is the same for all switches except for the portnames and the state of the port.
