Yeah, and I doubt C is correct. Using only a local database doesn't sound right.

B sounds plausible as well. A policy to apply 802.1X sounds logical.

No, I'm pretty sure not all devices need to support it. That would be too restrictive.

I'm leaning towards D and A. All devices should support 802.1X, right?

I think A is definitely true. Once a port is authenticated, every device behind it should get access.
