Auth-Fail VLAN

Page 86 highlights

Authentication status A user in the 802.1X guest VLAN passes 802.1X authentication VLAN manipulation Re-maps the MAC address of the user to the VLAN specified for the user. If the authentication server assigns no VLAN, re-maps the MAC address of the user to the initial PVID on the port. NOTE: The network device assigns a hybrid port to an 802.1X guest VLAN as an untagged member. Auth-Fail VLAN You can configure an Auth-Fail VLAN to accommodate users that have failed 802.1X authentication because of the failure to comply with the organization security strategy, such as using a wrong password. Users in the Auth-Fail VLAN can access a limited set of network resources, such as a software server, to download anti-virus software and system patches. The Auth-Fail VLAN does not accommodate 802.1X users that have failed authentication for authentication timeouts or network connection problems. The way that the network access device handles VLANs on the port differs by 802.1X access control mode. For more information about VLAN configuration and MAC-based VLAN, see Layer 2-LAN Switching Configuration Guide. 1. On a port that performs port-based access control Authentication status A user fails 802.1X authentication VLAN manipulation Assigns the Auth-Fail VLAN to the port as the PVID. All 802.1X users on this port can access only resources in the Auth-Fail VLAN. A user in the Auth-Fail VLAN fails 802.1X The Auth-Fail VLAN is still the PVID on the port, and all 802.1X re-authentication users on this port are in this VLAN. A user passes 802.1X authentication • Assigns the VLAN specified for the user to the port as the PVID, and removes the port from the Auth-Fail VLAN. After the user logs off, the user-configured PVID restores. • If the authentication server assigns no VLAN, the initial PVID applies. The user and all subsequent 802.1X users are assigned to the user-configured PVID. After the user logs off, the PVID remains unchanged. 2. On a port that performs MAC-based access control To perform the 802.1X Auth-Fail VLAN function on a port that performs MAC-based access control, you must make sure that the port is a hybrid port, and enable MAC-based VLAN on the port. Authentication status VLAN manipulation A user fails 802.1X authentication Re-maps the MAC address of the user to the Auth-Fail VLAN. The user can access only resources in the Auth-Fail VLAN. 76
