NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual Syntax Description mac mask default encrypted password ports Specifies the MAC address to add. Specifies the number of bits to use for the mask. Specifies the default entry. Used to display encrypted form of password in configuration files. Do not use. Specifies the password to send for authentication. Specifies the port or port list to use for authentication. Default If no password is specified, the MAC address will be used. Usage Guidelines Use this command to add an entry to the MAC address list used for MAC-based network login. If no match is found in the table of MAC entries, and a default entry exists, the default will be used to authenticate the client. All entries in the list are automatically sorted in longest prefix order. Associating a MAC Address to a Port You can configure the switch to accept and authenticate a client with a specific MAC address. Only MAC addresses that have a match for the specific ports are sent for authentication. For example, if you associate a MAC address with one or more ports, only authentication requests for that MAC addresses received on the port(s) are sent to the RADIUS server. The port(s) block all other authentication requests that do not have a matching entry. This is also known as secure MAC. To associate a MAC address with one or more ports, specify the ports option when using the configure netlogin add mac-list [ {} | default] {encrypted} {} {ports } command. You must enable MAC-based network login on the switch and the specified ports before using this command. If MAC-based network login is not enabled on the specified port(s), the switch displays a warning message similar to the following: WARNING: Not all specified ports have MAC-Based NetLogin enabled. If this occurs, make sure to enable MAC-based network login. Example The following command adds the MAC address 10:20:30:40:50:60 with the password foo to the list: configure netlogin add mac-list 10:20:30:40:50:60 password foo Chapter 16.
