Security Certificates
For more information on configuring a Radius profile, see “Configure 802.1X Radius
Security With the CLI” on page 125.
Configure an ESS Profile for MAC Filtering
Control is provided per ESS via settings in its Security Profile to turn off or on global
MAC Filtering settings. For example, if controller-based MAC filtering or if Radius
Server MAC Filtering is enabled, the command no macfiltering disables those settings
for the ESS. To enable global MAC filtering again, use the macfiltering command.
Security Certificates
Certificates provide security assurance validated by a Certificate Authority (CA). This
chapter describes the process to obtain and use certificates. For a Custom Certificate
to work properly, you must import not only the Server Certificate, but the entire
chain of trust starting with the issuer certificate all the way up to the Root CA (see
Figure 16).
Server certificates are generated based on a specific CSR (see Figure 15) and, along
with the server certificate, you should get the entire chain of trust (see Figure 16).
