Securing Wired Clients
The following are the basic steps for configuring the controller for xSec wired clients:
1. Configure the VLAN to which the authenticated clients will be assigned. See
Network Configuration
Parameters on page 164 for information.
This VLAN must have an IP interface, and is a different VLAN from the port’s native VLAN that provides
connectivity to the network.
2. Configure the user role for the authenticated xSec clients. See
Roles and Policies on page 438 for
