Overriding or Adding Attributes Locally with a Location Policy 501

Setting the Location To enable the location policy function on a WX switch, you must create at Policy least one location policy rule with one of the following commands:

set location policy deny if

{ssid operator ssid-name vlan operator vlan-glob user operator user-glob port port-list dap dap-num} [before rule-number modify rule-number]

set location policy permit

{vlan vlan-name inacl inacl-name outacl outacl-name}

if {ssid operator ssid-name vlan operator vlan-glob user operator user-glob port port-list dap dap-num} [before rule-number modify rule-number]

Asterisks (wildcards) are not supported in SSID names. You must specify the complete SSID name.

You must specify whether to permit or deny access, and you must identify a VLAN, username, or access port to match. Use one of the following operators to specify how the rule must match the VLAN or username:

„eq — Applies the location policy rule to all users assigned VLAN names matching vlan-globor having usernames that match user-glob.

(Like a user glob, a VLAN glob is a way to group VLANs for use in this command. For more information, see “VLAN Globs” on page 31.)

„neq — Applies the location policy rule to all users assigned VLAN names not matching vlan-globor having usernames that do not match user-glob.

For example, the following command denies network access to all users matching *.theirfirm.com, causing them to fail authorization:

WX1200# set location policy deny if user eq *.theirfirm.com

The following command authorizes access to the guest_1 VLAN for all users who do not match *.ourfirm.com:

WX1200# set location policy permit vlan guest_1 if user neq *.ourfirm.com
