Web and MAC Authentication

Configuring MAC Authentication on the Switch

Syntax: [no] aaa port-access mac-based < port-list>

Enables MAC-based authentication on the specified ports. Use the no form of the command to disable MAC- based authentication on the specified ports.

Syntax: aaa port-access mac-based [e] < port-list> [addr-limit <1-32>]

Specifies the maximum number of authenticated MACs to allow on the port. (Default: 1)

Note: On switches where MAC Auth and 802.1X can operate concurrently, this limit includes the total number of clients authenticated through both methods.

Syntax: [no] aaa port-access mac-based [e] < port-list> [addr-moves]

Allows client moves between the specified ports under MAC Auth control. When enabled, the switch allows addresses to move without requiring a re-authentica- tion. When disabled, the switch does not allow moves and when one does occur, the user will be forced to re- authenticate. At least two ports (from port(s) and to port(s)) must be specified. Use the no form of the command to disable MAC address moves between ports under MAC Auth control. (Default: disabled – no moves allowed)

Syntax: aaa port-access mac-based [e] < port-list> [auth-vid <vid>] no aaa port-access mac-based [e] < port-list> [auth-vid]

Specifies the VLAN to use for an authorized client. The Radius server can override the value (accept-response includes a vid). If auth-vidis 0, no VLAN changes occur unless the RADIUS server supplies one. Use the no form of the command to set the auth-vidto 0.(Default: 0).
