ProSafe M4100 and M7100 Managed Switches • After a port is in an authorized state, if any client initiates dot1x authentication, the port clears authenticated clients' states, and in the process clears the VLAN assigned to the port (if any). Then the port continues with the new client authentication and authorization process. • When a client authenticates itself initially on the network, the switch acts as the authenticator to the clients on the network and forwards the authentication request to the RADIUS server in the network. For use in VLAN assignment, the following tunnel attributes are used: • Tunnel-Type = VLAN (13) • Tunnel-Medium-Type = 802 • Tunnel-Private-Group-ID = VLANID where VLANID is 12 bits, with a value between 1 and 4094. 192.168.0.1 RADIUS server 1/0/6 Host 1/0/12 1/0/5 192.168.0.5 Switch 1/0/5 vlan2000 192.168.0.3 Host Figure 31. VLAN assignment using RADIUS In the previous figure, the switch has placed the host in the VLAN (vlan2000) based on the user details of the clients. The configureation on a RADIUS server for a user logged in as admin is: • Tunnel-Type = VLAN (13) • Tunnel-Medium-Type = 802 • Tunnel-Private-Group-ID = 2000 CLI: Assign VLANS Using RADIUS 1.
