Figure 6. Dynamic VLAN Assignment
1. Configure 8021.x globally (refer to Enabling 802.1X) along with relevant RADIUS server configurations
(refer to the illustration in Dynamic VLAN Assignment with Port Authentication).
2. Make the interface a switchport so that it can be assigned to a VLAN.
3. Create the VLAN to which the interface will be assigned.
4. Connect the supplicant to the port configured for 802.1X.
5. Verify that the port has been authorized and placed in the desired VLAN (refer to the illustration in
Dynamic VLAN Assignment with Port Authentication).
Guest and Authentication-Fail VLANs
Typically, the authenticator (the Dell Networking system) denies the supplicant access to the network
until the supplicant is authenticated. If the supplicant is authenticated, the authenticator enables the port
and places it in either the VLAN for which the port is configured or the VLAN that the authentication
server indicates in the authentication data.
NOTE: Ports cannot be dynamically assigned to the default VLAN.
