Linksys SLM2008, SLM2005 manual Security 802.1X Parameter, Security Static MAC Address

Chapter 4 Advanced Configuration

RADIUS UDP Port  Enter the UDP Port of the server. The UDP port is used to verify the RADIUS server authentication. The default value is 1812.

Key String  Enter the secret key string as defined on the RADIUS server. The secret key string is used for authenticating and encrypting communications between the device and the RADIUS server.

Admin State  Sets the authentication mode to one of the following options:

•Auto  Requires a dot1x-aware client to be authorized by the authentication server. Clients that are not dot1x‑aware will be denied access.

•Force-Authorized Forces the port to grant access to all clients, either dot1x-aware or otherwise. (This is the default setting.)

•Force-Unauthorized Forces the port to deny access to all clients, either dot1x-aware or otherwise.

Port State  Displays the state of the 802.1X for each port.

Re-authenticateIt will trigger the switch to ask a connected client to restart authentication process.

Force Reinitialize  It will trigger the specific port of the switch to restart 802.1X process.

Statistics  The Switch can display statistics for 802.1X protocol exchanges for any port.

Security > 802.1X Parameter

When 802.1X is enabled, you need to configure the parameters for the authentication process that runs between the client and the Switch. The client identity lookup process that runs between the Switch and authentication server also needs to be configured. These parameters are described in this section.

Security > 802.1X Parameter

Enable Reauthentication  Enables re-authentication.

Reauthtentication Period (1-3600 seconds)  Sets the time period after which a connected client must be re‑authenticated. The default value is 3600 seconds.

EAP Timeout (1-255 seconds)  Sets the time period during an authentication session that the Switch waits before retransmitting an EAP packet. The default value is 30 seconds.

Security > Static MAC Address

Static MAC Address allows you to configure a switch port with the MAC address of one or more devices that are authorized to access the network through that port. The MAC address is bound to the ingress port specified on the list and does not allow the MAC address to change ports. Only incoming traffic with source addresses already stored in the static address table will be accepted as authorized to access the network through that port. MAC addresses on the list do not age out.

Security > Static MAC Address

MAC Address  Enter the specific MAC address for the system to store and decide the destination port to forward.

VLAN ID  Enter the VLAN ID associated with the specific MAC address.

Port  Select the port associated with the specific MAC address.

Click Save Settings to save any changes.
