View the Service Profile’s Access Rules

To view a Web-Portal service profile’s access rules

1Select the service profile in the Wireless Service Profiles table (located in the Content panel).

A Setup group appears in the Task List panel.

2In the Task List panel, select Web Portal Access.

The Configure 802.1X Access wizard appears. The wizard displays the encryption settings, access rules, and AAA settings for the service profile and allows you to change them. You also can configure new access rules using the wizard.

The wizard is similar to the 802.1X Access wizard, but shows access information for the Web-Portal service profile. (See “View the Service Profile’s Access Rules” on page 62.)

Optional: Configure Mobility Profile™ attributes allow or deny access to the network for a Mobility Profiles specific user or group of users. When you create a Mobility Profile, you

specify which MAP ports, Distributed MAPs, or wired authentication ports are to be included. Typically, you include ports that are defined as MAP ports or Distributed MAPs. You can specify that all or no ports are included, or you can specify a list of ports to be included.

When you apply the Mobility Profile, it guests have access only through specific areas of your WLAN—if they roam outside of a designated area supported by a WX switch or certain MAPs, they no longer have access to the Internet.

After creating a Mobility Profile, you can assign it to users created in the local WX user database, or users who are authenticated and authorized by a RADIUS server. To assign it to users in the WX user database, you add the Mobility Profile name when you create or modify a user or user group. To add this on a RADIUS server, you assign the name of the Mobility Profile by using the Mobility-Profile RADIUS attribute, which is a 3Com vendor-specific attribute (VSA).

To create a Mobility Profile

1Select Configuration on the toolbar.

2In the Organizer panel, expand the WX switch.

3Expand AAA, then select Mobility Profiles.
