Configuring MAC Authentication for Ports

Configures MAC authentication on switch ports, including setting the maximum MAC count, applying a MAC address filter, and enabling dynamic VLAN assignment.

Command Attributes

•Mode – Enables MAC authentication on a port. (Default: None)

•Maximum MAC Count – Sets the maximum number of MAC addresses that can be authenticated on a port. The maximum number of MAC addresses per port is 1024, and the maximum number of secure MAC addresses supported for the switch system is 1024. When the limit is reached, all new MAC addresses are treated as authentication failed. (Default: 1024; Range: 1 to 1024)

•MAC Filter ID – Applies a MAC address filter to a port interface. MAC address filters must first be created from the MAC Filter Configuration page. Only one filter can be applied to a port. (Default: No filters are applied)

•Dynamic VLAN – Enables dynamic VLAN assignment for an authenticated port. When enabled, any VLAN identifiers returned by the RADIUS server are applied to the port, providing the VLANs have already been created on the switch. (GVRP is not used to create the VLANs.) The VLAN settings specified by the first authenticated MAC address are implemented for a port. Other authenticated MAC address on the port must have same VLAN configuration, or they are treated as authentication failure. (Default: Disabled)
