Configuring Match FQDN Option

You can also use the “match FQDN” option for a server match rule. With a match FQDN rule, the server is selected if the <domain> portion of the user information in the formats <domain>\<user> or <user>@<domain> exactly matches a specified string. Note the following caveats when using a match FQDN rule:

This rule does not support client information in the host/<pc-name>.<domain> format, so it is not useful for 802.1x machine authentication.

The match FQDN option performs matches on only the <domain> portion of the user information sent in an authentication request. The match-authstring option (described previously) allows you to match all or a portion of the user information sent in an authentication request.

Trimming Domain Information from Requests

Before the controller forwards an authentication request to a specified server, it can truncate the domain-specific portion of the user information. This is useful when user entries on the authenticating server do not include domain information. You can specify this option with any server match rule. This option is only applicable when the user information is sent to the controller in the following formats:

<domain>\<user> — the <domain>\ portion is truncated

<user>@<domain> — the @<domain> portion is truncated

NOTE: This option does not support client information sent in the format host/<pc-name>.<domain>

Using the WebUI

1.Navigate to the Configuration > Security > Authentication > Servers page.
