Configuring a Mobility Profile 511

You can then assign this Mobility Profile to one or more users. For example, to assign the Mobility Profile roses-profileto all users at EXAMPLE\, type the following command:

WX1200# set user EXAMPLE\* attr mobility-profile roses-profile success: change accepted.

(For a list of the commands for assigning attributes, see “Assigning Attributes to Users and Groups” on page 492.)

During 802.1X authorization for clients at EXAMPLE\, MSS must search for the Mobility Profile named roses-profile. If it is not found, the authorization fails and clients with usernames like EXAMPLE\jose and EXAMPLE\tamara are rejected.

If roses-profileis configured for EXAMPLE\ users on your WX, MSS checks its port list. If, for example, the current port for EXAMPLE\jose’s connection is on the list of allowed ports specified in roses-profile, the connection is allowed to proceed. If the port is not in the list (for example, EXAMPLE\jose is on port 5, which is not in the port list), the authorization fails and client EXAMPLE\jose is rejected.

The Mobility Profile feature is disabled by default. You must enable Mobility Profile attributes on the WX switch to use it. You can enable or disable the feature for the whole WX only. If the Mobility Profile feature is disabled, all Mobility Profile attributes are ignored.

To put Mobility Profile attributes into effect on a WX, type the following command:

WX1200# set mobility-profile mode enable success: change accepted.

To display the name of each Mobility Profile and its ports, type the following command:

WX1200# display mobility-profile Mobility Profiles
