Unfortunately the C2 switch is, in essence, a single user auth switch. The way to get a phone + PC working is to do a VLAN to role mapping for the phone. I banged my head on this one a few weeks back. When you move to the C3, the problem goes away because the C3 will indeed do multi-user auth. The VLAN-to-role mapping is considered an admin rule which takes precedence over the dot1x on the port allowing the PC to correctly authenticate. You need to setup the VLAN to role mapping to match the tagged VLAN the phone is using (and, yes you must do a tagged vlan from the phone for this to work). The other hassle is that there is no way to prove the phone has a role mapped with the C2's CLI or via the GUI. You just need to trust it. Once the user authenticates, you can verify it through the GUI and the CLI.

We have configured the switch with authentication 802.1x + Phone: The first type of authentication is an 802.1x for the domain users, with active directory and IAS windows 2003. The second type is a mac authentication for Telephones. For the first time it works as expected, the problem occurs when we restarted the PC, when restarted we never see the authentication messages on the event viewer. But when we disconnect the Ethernet cable of the computer and then reconnect it again it authenticate successfully. I don’t know why when you restart the PC it never authenticates correctly. Version tested: PC with Windows XP and Windows 7 Secure Stack C2 = 05.02.15.0002 NetSight Suite = 4.2.1.39 ***I also tested this in a C3 and the computer successfully authenticate after 2 mins of logon. Help will be really appreciated!!
