Description
The Max Supplicants Violation occurs when more than the configured number of 802.1x clients that are attached to the port. The port will be disabled until the timeout in the "Auto Enable Delay" has expired. This alarm indicates that an attempt has been made to add additional devices to the network and the number of 802.1x supplicants has been exceeded.

When the maximum number of supplicants is exceeded, it will be alarmed via the Access Violation alarm and the alarm will indicate the MAC address of the device that caused the violation to occur.
