If no critical VLAN is configured, RADIUS server unreachable can cause an online user being
re-authenticated to be logged off. If a critical VLAN is configured, the user remains online and in the
original VLAN.
Configuring an 802.1X guest VLAN
Follow these guidelines when you configure an 802.1X guest VLAN:
•
You can configure only one 802.1X guest VLAN on a port. The 802.1X guest VLANs on different
ports can be different.
Assign different IDs to the voice VLAN, the port VLAN, and the 802.1X guest VLAN on a port, so
•
the port can correctly process incoming VLAN tagged traffic.
You cannot specify a VLAN as both a super VLAN and an 802.1X guest VLAN. For more
•
information about super VLAN, see Layer 2—LAN Switching Configuration Guide.
Before configuring an 802.1X guest VLAN, complete the following tasks:
Create the VLAN to be specified as the 802.1X guest VLAN.
•
•
Enable 802.1X multicast trigger on the 802.1X-enabled port performs port-based access control.
To configure an 802.1X guest VLAN:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Configure an 802.1X
guest VLAN for one or
more ports in system
view or Ethernet
interface view.
Configuring an Auth-Fail VLAN
Follow these guidelines when configuring an 802.1X Auth-Fail VLAN:
Assign different IDs to the port VLAN and the 802.1X Auth-Fail VLAN on a port, so the port can
•
correctly process VLAN tagged incoming traffic.
You can configure only one 802.1X Auth-Fail VLAN on a port. The 802.1X Auth-Fail VLANs on
•
different ports can be different.
•
