Port-based network access control makes use of the physical characteristics of LAN infrastructures in order to provide a means of authenticating and authorizing devices attached to a LAN port that has point-to-point connection characteristics and of preventing access to that port in cases in which the authentication and authorization process fails.

The IEEE 802.11 standard describes an architectural framework within which authentication and consequent actions take place.

Configuration Examples
v1.0, April 2010
On this network, traffic from streaming applications uses UDP port 4567 as the source and 4568 as
the destination. This real-time traffic is time sensitive, so it is assigned to a high-priority hardware
queue. By default, data traffic uses hardware queue 0, which is designated as a best-effort queue.
Also the
confirmed action
on this flow is to send the packets with a committed rate of
1000000
Kbps and burst size of 128 KB. Packets that violate the committed rate and burst size are
dropped.
802.1X
Local Area Networks (LANs) are often deployed in environments that permit unauthorized
devices to be physically attached to the LAN infrastructure, or permit unauthorized users to
attempt to access the LAN through equipment already attached. In such environments, it may be
desirable to restrict access to the services offered by the LAN to those users and devices that are
permitted to use those services.
Port-based network access control makes use of the physical characteristics of LAN infrastructures
in order to provide a means of authenticating and authorizing devices attached to a LAN port that
has point-to-point connection characteristics and of preventing access to that port in cases in which
the authentication and authorization process fails. In this context, a port is a single point of
attachment to the LAN, such as ports of MAC bridges and associations between stations or access
points in IEEE 802.11 Wireless LANs.
The IEEE 802.11 standard describes an architectural framework within which authentication and
consequent actions take place. It also establishes the requirements for a protocol between the
authenticator (the system that passes an authentication request to the authentication server) and the
supplicant (the system that requests authentication), as well as between the authenticator and the
authentication server.
The GS108T and GS110TP switches support a guest VLAN, which allows unauthenticated users
to have limited access to the network resources.
Another 802.1X feature is the ability to configure a port to Enable/Disable EAPoL packet
forwarding support.You can disable or enable the forwarding of EAPoL when 802.1X is disabled
on the device.
Note:
You can use QoS features to provide rate limiting on the guest VLAN to limit the
network resources the guest VLAN provides.
