494CHAPTER 21: CONFIGURING AAA FOR NETWORK USERS

All of the authorization attributes listed in Table 40 on page 448 can be specified in a service profile except ssid.

Assigning a Security Once a security access control list (ACL) is defined and committed, it can ACL to a User or a be applied dynamically and automatically to users and user groups

Group through the 802.1X authentication and authorization process. When you assign a Filter-Id attribute to a user or group, the security ACL name value is entered as an authorization attribute into the user or group record in the local WX database or RADIUS server.

If the Filter-Id value returned through the authentication and authorization process does not match the name of a committed security ACL in the WX, the user fails authorization and cannot be connected.

(For details about security ACLs, see Chapter 19, “Configuring and Managing Security ACLs,” on page 377.)

Assigning a Security ACL Locally

To use the local WX database to restrict a user, a MAC user, or a group of users or MAC users to the permissions stored within a committed security ACL, use the commands shown in Table 44.
