Configuring Dynamic VLAN Assignment with Port
Authentication
Dell EMC Networking OS supports dynamic VLAN assignment when using 802.1X.
The basis for VLAN assignment is RADIUS attribute 81, Tunnel-Private-Group-ID. Dynamic VLAN assignment uses the standard
dot1x procedure:
1. The host sends a dot1x packet to the Dell EMC Networking system
2. The system forwards a RADIUS REQEST packet containing the host MAC address and ingress port number
3. The RADIUS server authenticates the request and returns a RADIUS ACCEPT message with the VLAN assignment using
Tunnel-Private-Group-ID
The illustration shows the configuration on the Dell EMC Networking system before connecting the end user device in black and
blue text, and after connecting the device in red text. The blue text corresponds to the preceding numbered steps on dynamic
VLAN assignment with 802.1X.
