D-Link DWS-1008 CLI Manual 205

set mac-usergroup attr

Creates a user group in the local database on the switch for users who are authenticated by a

MAC address, and assigns authorization attributes for the group.

(To conﬁgure a user group and assign authorization attributes through RADIUS, see the

documentation for your RADIUS server.)

Syntax: set mac-usergroup group-name attr attribute-name value

group-name Name of a MAC user group. Specify a name of up to 32 alphanumeric

characters, with no spaces. The name must begin with an alphabetic

character.

attribute-name value Name and value of an attribute you are using to authorize all MAC

users in the group for a particular service or session characteristic.

Defaults: None.

Access: Enabled.

Usage: To change the value of an attribute, enter set mac-usergroup attr with the new value. To

delete an attribute, use clear mac-usergroup attr.

You can assign attributes to individual MAC users and to MAC user groups. If attributes are

conﬁgured for a MAC user and also for the group the MAC user is in, the attributes assigned to

the individual MAC user take precedence for that user. For example, if the start-date attribute

conﬁgured for a MAC user is sooner than the start-date conﬁgured for the MAC user group the

user is in, the MAC user’s network access can begin as soon as the user start-date. The MAC

user does not need to wait for the MAC user group’s start date.

Examples: The following command creates the MAC user group eastcoasters and assigns the

group members to VLAN orange:

DWS-1008# set mac-usergroup eastcoasters attr vlan-name orange

success: change accepted.
