Multi-device port authentication configuration
Brocade(config)#interface e 3/1
Brocade(config-if-e1000-3/1)#mac-authentication disable-ingress-filtering
If the client MAC address is successfully authenticated and the correct VLAN attribute is sent by the
RADIUS server, the MAC address will be successfully authenticated on the VLAN.
Syntax: mac-authentication disable-ingress-filtering
Configuration notes and limitations:
• This feature works in conjunction with multi-device port authentication with dynamic VLAN
assignment only. If this feature is not enabled, authentication works as in “Example 2 —
multi-device port authentication with dynamic VLAN assignment” on page 1881 .
• The port on which ingress filtering is disabled must be tagged to a VLAN.
• If a host sends both tagged and untagged traffic, and ingress filtering is disabled on the port,
the port must be configured as a dual-mode port.
Specifying to which VLAN a port is moved after its RADIUS-specified VLAN
assignment expires
When a port is dynamically assigned to a VLAN through the authentication of a MAC address, and
the MAC session for that address is deleted on the Brocade device, then by default the port is
removed from its RADIUS-assigned VLAN and placed back in the VLAN where it was originally
assigned.
A port can be removed from its RADIUS-assigned VLAN when any of the following occur:
• The link goes down for the port
• The MAC session is manually deleted with the mac-authentication clear-mac-session
command
• The MAC address that caused the port to be dynamically assigned to a VLAN ages out
For example, say port 1/1 is currently in VLAN 100, to which it was assigned when MAC address
0007.eaa1.e90f was authenticated by a RADIUS server. The port was originally configured to be in
VLAN 111. If the MAC session for address 0007.eaa1.e90f is deleted, then port 1/1 is moved from
VLAN 100 back into VLAN 111.
You can optionally specify an alternate VLAN to which to move the port when the MAC session for
the address is deleted. For example, to place the port in the restricted VLAN, enter commands such
as the following.
Brocade(config)#interface e 3/1
Brocade(config-if-e1000-3/1)#mac-auth move-back-to-old-vlan port-restrict-vlan
Syntax: [no] mac-authentication move-back-to-old-vlan port-restrict-vlan| port-configured-vlan |
system-default-vlan
The port-configured-vlan keyword removes the port from its RADIUS-assigned VLAN and places it
back in the VLAN where it was originally assigned. This is the default.
The port-restrict-vlan keyword removes the port from its RADIUS-assigned VLAN and places it in the
restricted VLAN.
The system-default-vlan keyword removes the port from its RADIUS-assigned VLAN and places it in
the DEFAULT-VLAN.
