client is authenticated and is undisturbed by the failure condition(s). The
reasons for failure are logged and buffered into the local logging database such
that the operator can track the failure conditions.

RADIUS-based Dynamic VLAN Assignment

If VLAN assignment is enabled in the RADIUS server then as part of the
response message, the RADIUS server sends the VLAN ID which the client is
requested to use in the 802.1x tunnel attributes. If dynamic VLAN creation is
enabled on the switch and the RADIUS assigned VLAN does not exist, then
the assigned VLAN is dynamically created. This implies that the client can
connect from any port and be assigned to the appropriate VLAN. This gives
flexibility for clients to move around the network with out requiring the
operator to perform additional provisioning for each network interface.
