For each of a Service’s policy components that you can configure, the following table references an illustrative Use
Case and detailed Configuration Instructions.
Policy Component Illustrative Use Cases
Configuration
Instructions
Service l "802.1X Wireless Use Case" on page 479
l "Web Based Authentication Use Case" on
page 485.
l "MAC Authentication Use Case" on page
492.
l "TACACS+ Use Case" on page 495.

Authentication Method "802.1X Wireless Use Case" on page 479
demonstrates the principle of multiple
authentication methods in a list. When Policy
Manager initiates the authentication
handshake, it tests the methods in priority
order until one is accepted by the client.
"Web Based Authentication Use Case" on
page 485 has only a single authentication
method, which is specifically designed for
authentication of the request attributes
received from the Dell Web Portal.

Authentication
Methods" on
page 131
Authentication Source l "802.1X Wireless Use Case" on page 479
demonstrates the principle of multiple
authentication sources in a list. Policy
Manager tests the sources in priority order
until the client can be authenticated. In this
case Active Directory is listed first.
l "Web Based Authentication Use Case" on
page 485 uses the local Policy Manager
repository, as this is common practice
among administrators configuring Guest
Users.
l "MAC Authentication Use Case" on page
492 uses a Static Host List for
authentication of the MAC address sent by
the switch as the device’s username.
l "TACACS+ Use Case" on page 495 uses
the local Policy Manager repository. Other
authentication sources would also be fine.
