MAC Authentication Configuration Example
Network requirements
As illustrated in
, a supplicant is connected to Switch through port GigabitEthernet 1/0/2.
z
MAC authentication is required on port GigabitEthernet 1/0/2 to control user access to the Internet.
z
All users belong to domain aabbcc.net. The authentication is performed locally and the MAC
address of the PC (00-0d-88-f6-44-c1) is used as both the username and password.

Configuration Procedure
# Enable MAC authentication on port GigabitEthernet 1/0/2.
[device] mac-authentication interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/2
# Specify to use the user MAC address as both the username and password for MAC authentication,
and specify the MAC address format as hyphened lowercase MAC address.

# Add a local user.
z
Specify the username and password.
[device] local-user 00-0d-88-f6-44-c1

z
Set the service type to “lan-access”.

# Add an ISP domain named aabbcc.net.
[device] domain aabbcc.net
New Domain added.
# Specify to perform local authentication.
[device-isp-aabbcc.net] scheme local
[device-isp-aabbcc.net] quit
# Specify aabbcc.net as the ISP domain for MAC authentication
[device] mac-authentication domain aabbcc.net
# Enable MAC authentication globally (This is usually the last step in configuring access control related
features. Otherwise, a user may be denied of access to the networks because of incomplete
configuaration.)
