Step Command Remarks
3. Configure MAC
authentication timers.
mac-authentication timer
{ offline-detect offline-detect-value |
quiet quiet-value | server-timeout
server-timeout-value }
Optional.
By default, the offline detect timer is
300 seconds, the quiet timer is 60
seconds, and the server timeout
timer is 100 seconds.
4. Configure the properties
of MAC authentication
user accounts.
mac-authentication user-name-format
{ fixed [ account name ] [ password
{ cipher | simple } password ] |
mac-address [ { with-hyphen |
without-hyphen } [ lowercase |
uppercase ] ] }
Optional.
By default, the username and
password for a MAC
authentication user account must
be a MAC address in lower case
without hyphens.
Configuring MAC authentication on a port
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Enable MAC authentication.
• In system view:
mac-authentication interface
interface-list
• In interface view:
a. interface interface-type
interface-number
b. mac-authentication
Disabled by default.
Enable MAC authentication for
ports in bulk in system view or
an individual port in interface
view.
3. Set the maximum number of
concurrent MAC authentication
users allowed on a port.
mac-authentication max-user
user-number
Optional.
The default maximum number
of concurrent MAC
authentication users is 1024.
NOTE:
You cannot enable MAC authentication on a link aggregation member port or a service loopback port. If
MAC authentication is enabled on a port, you cannot assign it to a link aggregation or service loopback
group.
Specifying an authentication domain for MAC
authentication users
By default, MAC authentication users are in the system default authentication domain. To implement
different access policies for users, you can specify authentication domains for MAC authentication users
in the following ways:
• Specify a global authentication domain in system view. This domain setting applies to all ports.
• Specify an authentication domain for an individual port in interface view.
MAC authentication chooses an authentication domain for users on a port in this order: the port-specific
domain, the global domain, and the default domain. For more information about authentication
domains, see "Configuring AAA."
