I have never used a switchport for .1x to a PC connected through a
phone.  I would say it probably will not work since it bypasses the idea
of .1x entirely if it does.

You maybe could use it in 802.11 mode, but the phone would probably not
have access until the PC auths (if it would work at all)..
