Various methods and systems for dynamically determining the role of a network device in a link authentication protocol exchange are disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method involves monitoring several (e.g., two) link authentication protocol exchanges. These link authentication protocol exchanges can be initiated at substantially the same time. A first network device acts as an authenticator in a first one of the link authentication protocol exchanges and a supplicant in a second one of the link authentication protocol exchanges. One of the link authentication protocol exchanges is terminated prior to completion.
L'invention concerne divers procédés et systèmes de détermination dynamique du rôle d'un dispositif de réseau dans un échange de protocole d'authentification de liaison. Dans un mode de réalisation, ledit procédé consiste à surveiller plusieurs (par exemple, deux) échanges de protocole d'authentification de liaison. Lesdits échanges de protocole d'authentification de liaison peuvent être initialisés sensiblement en même temps. Un premier dispositif de réseau sert d'authentificateur dans un premier échange de protocole d'authentification de liaison, et de supplicant dans un second échange de protocole d'authentification de liaison. Un des échanges de protocole d'authentification de liaison est terminé avant la complétion.
