xStack® DES-3528/DES-3552 Series Layer 2 Stackable Fast Ethernet Managed Switch Web UI Reference Guide
IMPB + WAC/JWAC Mode
This mode adds an extra layer of security by checking
the IP MAC-Binding Port Binding (IMPB) table before
trying one of the supported authentication methods. The
IMPB Table is used to create a 'white-list' that checks if
the IP streams being sent by authorized hosts have
been granted or not. In the above diagram, the Switch
port has been configured to allow clients to authenticate
using either WAC or JWAC. If the client is in the IMPB
table and tries to connect to the network using either of
these supported authentication methods and the client
is listed in the white list for legal IP/MAC/port checking,
access will be granted. If a client fails one of the
authentication methods, access will be denied.
MAC+ IMPB Mode
This mode adds an extra layer of security by checking
the IP MAC-Binding Port Binding (IMPB) table before
trying one of the supported authentication methods. The
IMPB Table is used to create a 'white-list' that checks if
the IP streams being sent by authorized hosts have
been granted or not. In the above diagram, the Switch
port has been configured to allow clients to authenticate
by using MAC. If the client is in the IMPB table and tries
to connect to the network by using MAC and the client is
listed in the white list for legal IP/MAC/port checking,
access will be granted. If a client fails one of the
authentication methods, access will be denied.
Compound Authentication Settings
Users can configure Authorization Network State Settings and compound authentication methods for a port or ports on
the Switch.
