Configuring a Guest
VLAN
Configuration
Prerequisites

Configuration Procedure

Displaying and
Maintaining 802.1x
Enable 802.1x
■
Set the port access control method to portbased for the port
■
Set the port access control mode to auto for the port
■
Create the VLAN to be specified as the guest VLAN
■
Follow these steps to configure Guest VLAN:
To do...
Enter system view
Configure the guest
VLAN for specified or all
ports
n
A super VLAN cannot be set as the guest VLAN. Similarly, a guest VLAN cannot
■
be set as the super VLAN. For information about super VLAN, refer to
Configuration" on page
You can specify a tagged VLAN as the guest VLAN for a Hybrid port, but the
■
guest VLAN does not take effect. Similarly, if a guest VLAN for a Hybrid port is
in operation, you cannot configure the guest VLAN to carry tags.
Configurations in system view are effective to all ports while configurations in
■
interface view are effective to the current port only.
You cannot configure access control method for a port configured with the
■
guest VLAN function
A port can be configured with only one guest VLAN. But different ports can
■
have different guest VLANs.
The guest VLAN takes effect only when the port access control method is set to
■
portbased. If the port access control method is macbased, the guest VLAN
can be configured successfully, but the configuration does not take effect.
c
CAUTION: If the data flows from a user-side device include VLAN tags, and
802.1x and guest VLAN are enabled on the access port, you are recommended to
configure different VLAN IDs for the Voice VLAN, the default port VLAN, and the
guest VLAN of 802.1x.
To do...
Display 802.1x session
information, statistics, or
configuration information of
specified or all ports
Clear 802.1x statistics
Use the command...
system-view
dot1x guest-vlan vlan-id [ interface
interface-list ]
Or in Ethernet interface view
interface interface-type interface-number
dot1x guest-vlan vlan-id
487.
Use the command...
display dot1x [ sessions |
statistics ] [ interface
interface-list ]
reset dot1x statistics
[ interface interface-list ]
