2.4.13 (Optional) Configuring the Guest VLAN for 802.1x
Authentication
Context
When the user access mode is mac and guest VLAN is enabled, the S3700 broadcasts
authentication request packets to all the 802.1x-enabled interfaces. If an interface does not
respond when the maximum number of re-authentications is reached, the S3700 adds this
interface to the guest VLAN. Users in the guest VLAN can access resources in the guest VLAN
without authentication, but must be authenticated when they access external resources. The users
who fail to pass authentication are still allowed to access resources within the specified range.
When the user access mode is port and the interface access control mode is auto, the S3700
adds the interface to the guest VLAN if 802.1x has been enabled in the system view and the
interface view. The users connected to this interface are allowed to access resources in the guest
VLAN without authentication.
You can configure the guest VLAN in the following ways.
