Network Login Commands
This chapter describes commands for configuring network login.
Network login is a feature designed to control the admission of user packets into a network by giving
network access only to users that have been properly authenticated. Network login is controlled by an
administrator on a per port, per VLAN basis and uses an integration of DHCP, user authentication over
the web interface, user authentication by MAC address, or 802.1x client software, and a RADIUS server
to provide a user database or specific configuration details.
Network login has two modes of operation:
Campus mode, used when a port in a VLAN will move to another VLAN when authentication has
●
been completed successfully. This mode is for the roaming user who will not always be using the
same port for authentication. Campus mode requires a DHCP server and a RADIUS server
configured for Extreme Network Login.
ISP mode, used when the port and VLAN used will remain constant. All network settings are
●
configured for that VLAN.
A DHCP server is included to support Network Login functionality.
