502CHAPTER 21: CONFIGURING AAA FOR NETWORK USERS

The following command places all users who are authorized for SSID tempvendor_a into VLAN kiosk_1:

WX1200# set location policy permit vlan kiosk_1 if ssid eq tempvendor_a

success: change accepted.

Applying Security ACLs in a Location Policy Rule

When reassigning security ACL filters, specify whether the filter is an input filter or an output filter, as follows:

„Input filter — Use inacl inacl-nameto filter traffic that enters the switch from users via a MAP access port or wired authentication port, or from the network via a network port.

„Output filter — Use outacl outacl-nameto filter traffic sent from the switch to users via a MAP access port or wired authentication port, or from the network via a network port.

For example, the following command authorizes users at

*.ny.ourfirm.com to access the bld4.tac VLAN, and applies the security ACL tac_24 to the traffic they receive:

WX1200# set location policy permit vlan bld4.tac outacl tac_24 if user eq *.ny.ourfirm.com

The following command authorizes access to users on VLANs with names matching bld4.* and applies security ACLs svcs_2 to the traffic they send and svcs_3 to the traffic they receive:

WX1200# set location policy permit inacl svcs_2 outacl svcs_3 if vlan eq bldg4.*

You can optionally add the suffixes .in and .out to inacl-nameand outacl-namefor consistency with their usage in entries stored in the local WX database.

Displaying and Positioning Location Policy Rules

The order of location policy rules is significant. MSS checks a location policy rule that is higher in the list before those lower in the list. Rules are listed in the order in which you create them, unless you move them.

To position location policy rules within the location policy, use before rule-numberand modify rule-numberin the set location policy command, or use the clear location policy rule-numbercommand.
