Roles Based on Client Authentication, DHCP Option and DHCP Fingerprinting

Page 207 highlights

Roles Based on Client Authentication The user role can be the default user role configured for an authentication method, such as 802.1X authentication. For each authentication method, you can configure a default role for clients who are successfully authenticated using that method. DHCP Option and DHCP Fingerprinting The DHCP fingerprinting allows you to identify the operating system of a device by looking at the options in the DHCP frame. Based on the operating system type, a role can be assigned to the device. For example, to create a role assignment rule with the DHCP option, select equals from the Operator dropdown list and enter 370103060F77FC in the String text box. Since 370103060F77FC is the fingerprint for Apple iOS devices such as iPad and iPhone, W-IAP assigns Apple iOS devices to the role that you choose.

Roles Based on Client Authentication
The user role can be the default user role configured for an authentication method, such as 802.1X
authentication. For each authentication method, you can configure a default role for clients who are
successfully authenticated using that method.
DHCP Option and DHCP Fingerprinting
The DHCP fingerprinting allows you to identify the operating system of a device by looking at the options in
the DHCP frame. Based on the operating system type, a role can be assigned to the device.
For example, to create a role assignment rule with the DHCP option, select
equals
from the
Operator
drop-
down list and enter 370103060F77FC in the
String
text box. Since 370103060F77FC is the fingerprint for
Apple iOS devices such as iPad and iPhone, W-IAP assigns Apple iOS devices to the role that you choose.
