Configuring 802.1X; Configuration Prerequisites; 802.1X Configuration Task List - HP 5120 EI Switch Series Configuration Manual

On a port that performs MAC-based access control
2.
Authentication status
A user fails 802.1X
authentication
A user in the Auth-Fail VLAN
fails 802.1X re-authentication
A user in the Auth-Fail VLAN
passes 802.1X authentication
NOTE:

To perform the 802.1X Auth-Fail VLAN function on a port that performs MAC-based access control, you must
ensure that the port is a hybrid port, and enable MAC-based VLAN on the port.

The network device assigns a hybrid port to an 802.1X Auth-Fail VLAN as an untagged member.

For more information about VLAN configuration and MAC-based VLAN, see the
Configuration Guide.
ACL assignment
You can specify an ACL for an 802.1X user to control its access to network resources. After the user
passes 802.1X authentication, the authentication server, either the local access device or a RADIUS
server, assigns the ACL to the port to filter the traffic from this user. In either case, you must configure the
ACL on the access device. You can change ACL rules while the user is online.

Configuring 802.1X

Configuration prerequisites

Configure an ISP domain and AAA scheme (local or RADIUS authentication) for 802.1X users.

If RADIUS authentication is used, create user accounts on the RADIUS server.

If local authentication is used, create local user accounts on the access device and set the service

type to lan-access.
For more information about RADIUS client configuration, see the chapter ―AAA configuration.‖

802.1X configuration task list

Complete the following tasks to configure 802.1X:
Task
Enabling 802.1X
Specifying EAP relay or EAP termination
VLAN manipulation
Re-maps the MAC address of the user to the Auth-Fail VLAN. The user can
access only resources in the Auth-Fail VLAN.
The user is still in the Auth-Fail VLAN.
Re-maps the MAC address of the user to the server-assigned VLAN.
If the authentication server assigns no VLAN, re-maps the MAC address of
the user to the initial default VLAN on the port.
