How Works
For further information about RADIUS, see
page 112.
This section contains some important considerations when using Network
Login on the Switch 4400.
Before you enable Network Login you must ensure that:
RADIUS has been configured on the Switch.
The RADIUS server in your network is operational.
If the RADIUS server fails or is unavailable, client devices will be unable
to access the network.
Network Login is not supported on ports configured to operate as
members of an aggregated link.
Network Login is not supported on ports configured to operate as
members of a resilient link.
Some client devices that are connected to the Switch port may not
support the authentication service, for example printers. You should
configure the Switch port to operate in Automatic Learning mode, so
that network traffic that does not match the MAC address for the
client device is filtered.
You should enable Network Login on all relevant Switch ports. Failure
to enable authentication on a single port could compromise the
security of the entire network.
The port security feature Disconnect Unauthorized Device (DUD), disables
a port if an unauthorized client device transmits data on it.
DUD is automatically enabled when a port is set to one of the following
port security modes:
Automatic Learning
Network Login (Secure)
Network Login with NBX
Disconnect Unauthorized Device (DUD) protects the network by checking
the source MAC address of each packet received on a port against the
authorized addresses for that port.
