Configuring the RADIUS server to support dynamic VLAN assignment
To specify VLAN identifiers on the RADIUS server, add the following attributes to the profile for the
MAC address on the RADIUS server, then enable dynamic VLAN assignment on multi-device port
authentication-enabled interfaces.
Attribute name
Type Value
Tunnel-Type
064
13 (decimal) - VLAN
Tunnel-Medium-Type
065
6 (decimal) - 802
Tunnel-Private-Group-ID 081
vlan-name (string)
The vlan-name value can specify either the name or the number of one or more
VLANs configured on the Brocade device.
For information about the attributes, refer to the Dynamic multiple VLAN assignment for 802.1X ports
section.
Also, refer to the example configuration of
Multi-device port authentication with dynamicVLAN
on page 281.
Enabling dynamic VLAN support for tagged packets on non-member VLAN ports
NOTE
This feature is not supported on ICX 6610 and FCX devices.
By default, the Brocade device drops tagged packets that are received on non-member VLAN ports.
This process is called ingress filtering. Since the MAC address of the packets are not learned,
authentication does not take place.
The Brocade device can authenticate clients that send tagged packets on non-member VLAN ports.
This enables the Brocade device to add the VLAN dynamically. To enable support, enter the following
command at the Interface level of the CLI.
device(config)#interface e 3/1
device(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
port authentication with dynamic VLAN assignment
on page 283.
• 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.
